Here are some pics, I don't know how to get the camera not to take them so blue, the corals look better in person

My thought, just add more food and raise your light up a little, maybe 6inch.
When I ran ULNS, I dosed KZ Coral Vitalizer, Amino, and Xtra.
The easiest way and cheapest is just to add more fish, and feed your fish.

Or you can just dose NO3. All you need is a trace amount in the tank.

Maybe wait on adding more fish until you figure out what is going on with the coral? I know that is probably not something you want to hear, but it is the best thing for your wallet, the fish and and your emotional health.

Corals look ok to me, abit pale but not that bad.. if you add anthias be prepared to feed a bunch of food. A wrasse would be a nice addition, the tonozukai at Jl is pretty cool looking, I bought the larger one awhile ago. Now that you've stopped po4 removal if you add a couple fish and slowly increase the feeding by summer corals should look awesome. I am not sure why when you said corals I thought your Lps was pale. Sps is not a problem, just takes abit of time to colour up.

Doesn't seem like you have any fish in your tank atm.
Personally, some wrasses that will help combat pests and tang for algae (although this isn't your issue). I also like blue green chromis.

Yes I deffently wanted to add a few wrasses but slowly very cautious of doing things too fast, that's one thing I learned with all the mistakes I made

A nice wrasse would be a good addition... they are active and nice eye candy.
