Add more fish, im Not a big fan of dosing nutrients. Also i would lower alk to below 8. Your system has very low nutrients , and im my experience they do better with lower alk levels.

That's true on what they said to add more fish

If I need to add more fish should I still lower my alk,I've heard the more bioload the higher the alk should be and the lower the bioload the lower the alk should be, right now I only have 5 fish, a 3 inch powder blue tang, a 4 inch blue eyed tang,1 lyretail, 1 purple queen and 1 cleaner wrasse
