Im not the pro that mr. Farly is, but i would suggest to simply set back and enjoy the tank and stop fiddling with parameters. The paremeters didnt look too terrible to begin with. The alk was pretty low, but not low enough for coral growth to cease. IMO a lot of people tend to grossly over due it on alk and calcium. For example, there is really no need to have you alk at 12dkh. Natural saltwater is not that high. I would suggest that you check the magnesium though. It does tend to run a little low on some of the batches of IO from time to time.
