So. I need some advise from all you experts..

Here's what I have.

150 display with 55 refug/sump

I have Kenya tree. ( fraging everywhere) Star polyps. zoo polyps . leather. sun polyps 1 large, 1 elephant mushroom.. 1 mushroom ( have no clue just popped up). coralline, bulb tip anenenomea ? 3 . brittle star, purple tang. yellow tang. pair of ocelias clowns, snow flake eel, flame angle 120 lbs of live , 3" sand bed , cheto and chetomorph in refug. , running bag carbon. reef oct. skimmer, 3 power heads. 750 return, stars out the ying yang. open brain coral, running 3 hal 150's and 6 t5 blues. temp at 78 and . turbos's , snails,

my question is what am I missing.. do I need phosban reactor?? just seems cant get certain things to open like the suns' Used to open a lot now stay closed. as well as my duncans.. had a spike in sG to 1.27. alk 8.1 calc. 425.

Just dont' feel that it's right. think SG is off . Nitraes cant' get below 8 ppm with reg water changes of 20% weekly . Ro/di for water with red sea salt mix. .

I am so dumb to some of this. maybe tried to much to quick

Can somebody give me some conctete suggestions to work on..
