Ok just tested my water for the first time in months. Got tired of chasing parameters and never ended like it should. This is my first go at a nano tank. In such small volume minor adjustments turn into bigger problems. See below and see if this checks out ok. month old system.
Current Set Up/Live Stock:
BioCube 16, Wave maker, Upgraded pump, Stock lights,Live rock/sand
Pink Torch, Frog Spawn, Hammer Coral, Duncan, Candy Cane, Sort/Long polyp GSP, Toxic Waste and Halloween Lepto, Rainbow Acan, assortment of Zoa’s.
Pair of Black Ice Clowns, Cleaner Shrimp, and a good variety in my CUC.
Water Parameters:
Temp 79.5-80F, Salinity 1.028, PH 8.2, Ammonia-0ppm, NO2-0ppm, NO3- 4ppm, Ca- 480ppm, Mg- 1440ppm, KH- 3.9/10.9, phosphate 0.01. Anything else I need to be testing for? And I use all Red Sea tests.

Dont need to test for ammonia or nitrite.

Ph also is optional in most cases since you dont really need to chase it unless theres an issue with c02.
Save some money on kits :)

Everything else looks great.
Happy reefing.
