I agree with this. A couple LED's wouldn't hurt either.

This hobby has broke the wifes purse strings, so I have to make sure my story bears fruit to see. I have no issue in getting more lights, but not sure if I should get cheap ones, some kessils that I found a good deal on. Buying 3 or 4 AIs or Radions will have the wife in a fit.
I will change up the T5s first and then hopefully I can figure out if i have a water quality issue and fix it as well.

Lack of experience in saltwater tanks does not help me determine these things very well. Not even sure if I am getting good growth compared to others. I think I am....but....

your alk seems a bit high to me. probably not dangerous levels, but I usually keep mine between 9-10. Also you have to be very careful with gfo/rowaphos. when I first started using it, i added to much and it really sucked the colors out of my sps. Just a few ideas, every tank is different though so its hard to say forsure.
