Fromia star question

I would like to add a fromia milleporella to my tank. I am wondering how long I should wait. I bought this tank used, the rock is about 2 years old, I changed the substrate when I moved the tank to my house on July 10 of this year. I moved all the rock in trashcans full of water so I never saw a spike. My parameters are as follows:

salinity 35ppt (sg 1.0264)
calcium 450-500
alk 3.0-4.0 meq/l
nitrate .2ppm
ph 8.2-8.3 (ph probe on order as I don't trust the test kit for accuracy)
temp 75.9-76.8
orp 325-380mv (occasionally drops to 300 if I feed the CBB heavily w/mysis)
I recently had a diatom bloom caused by faulty di on the ro but this has been rectified
 
You should be OK. JUst make sure you buy him from some one reputable and drip acclimate him for a few hours very slowly.
