What's cooking good looking?

Hey everyone,

I've been a follower of this forum for a year and I'm excited to finally join the community. I'm seeking advice on dialing in my reef and finding a second Radion xr15 Pro because my tank is currently under-lit.

My Waterbox 90.3 has been running for four months, but I'm facing difficulty in getting my corals to grow. Here's some information about my setup:

I use LiquaGen 7 stage RODI water and mix it with Reef Crystals instant ocean salt.
My refugium is running well on 12 hr opposite tank light cycle.
I feed my tank twice a day with rods frozen food.
My levels are: 0.01 phosphate (Hanna ULR), 15 nitrate (Red Sea), 0 nitrite (Red Sea), 0 ammonia (Red Sea), 8.7 alkalinity (Hanna), 1.025 salinity (Hanna Digital), 77°F temperature, 425 calcium (Hanna), and 1380 magnesium (Salifert).
two MP 40's at 15 %
Aquamaxx DFC 120 protein skimmer.
1 Radion XR15 g5 Pro (need another)
Aquamaxx AF-1 filter fleece roller.
Auto top off, (forget what brand)

I think my next step is an ICP test, adding a light, PAR meeter test, and any suggestions or feedback from experienced members of this community would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
