Test Kits for keeping SPS, and dosing help

[jjk_reef00]

Does anyone know a thread for testing water conditions for keeping SPS corals.
I've had good luck with beginner corals: hammer, xenia, mushrooms, etc

I test with API reef test kit:

Tests calcium, carbonate hardness, phosphate and nitrate levels

I know SPS requires pristine conditions.

Any recommendations or anyone know a thread that has this info?
(It seems different things I read all say something different)

Also anyone know a thread with (or willing to post here) a complete list of water parameters I should achieve?


Any recommendations for what to dose on a 120 gallon tank?
How often/ how much.

I have not dosed my tank before and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Any recommendations for test kits?
