If everything looks cool, I'd stick with your plan. Don't muck it up. Sometimes the best thing to do is nothing at all.

I add a tiny bit of iodine and iron weekly with Kalk dripping and Calcium and Alk to maintain levels. I put seachem buffer which adds strontium in the top off water as well. But my tank its about 3/4 softie and 1/4 LPS.

B-Ionic is a two part dosing additive by E.S.V. This is what I use in my tank to keep the calcium and alkalinity where it should be. Dosing two part is easy, and I recommend dosing it over regular ionic calcium - only reason being, using regular ionic calcium, it is easier to lose track of the alkalinity levels. With two part additives everything is already measured out. Simply add what you need on a regular basis.
I dose KENT Strontium & Molybdenum, as stony corals incorporate both of those elements into their skeletons. I also dose Coral-Vite by KENT, as it helps replenish trace elements and minerals.
