Believe setup should be okay (145g with 2x250W MH and 4600gph) started keeping Ca and Alk up by making sure change water is on (correcting low Ca and Mg as IO low right from the pail) then maintaining with reactor and now running carbon full-time. Am seeing the colours improving but looking for that extra edge.
This is all good .
if you want colors get on ZEO or silmilar system with intent to lover No3 and Po4. (Ozone and UV is not for these bacterial based systems just FYI)
Food for SPS is last on your list after water quality , flow and lights.
Then dose potassium for better colors
