I would adjust the mix to meet the levels of your main tank with suppliments. Starting with Mg.... then Ca and Alk. I find if you bring the Mg levels up first then the CA doesn't precipitate.
I am sure you know where your levels need to be but here are mine anyways: MG: 1360/1400 Ca: 435 Alk: 3.45 Meq/L Salinity: 1.024 Rich.......

Thanks guys. I was moreso worried about the oily film on the top of the water. I haven't seen this before and though something might have got into the water and contaminated it. I added some alk and Ca buffer and did the water change anyways. I expected some corals to slime up and the skimmer to go nuts if there was a problem but everything seemed fine. Still nothing detectable the next morning but I'll keep an eye on it and post if I notice anything. Thanks for your help.
