I use the same kits as Warren, and in addition I also use Red Sea Pro for NO3 and Mg as well as Hanna alkalinity checker for 2nd "opinion". Hehe. I have both Hanna po4 checkers too.

If PO4 is 2 ppm the HI736 ULR Phosphorus checker won't read that high - it only goes to 0.6 ppm (200 ppb). :D The HI713 LR Phosphate checker may be a better option as it goes up to 2.5 ppm (this...

If I were you, I would get a second test on that PO4 with a different kit just to confirm. PO4 at 2.0 ppm is unusually high for a reef tank. I don't usually see it that high even in poorly...

That doesn't make sense though. It's just powder, it's not engineered to only mix so much in 2 minutes. I never have unmixed powder after the 2 mins anyway. If I see the bubbles are all out, I'll...

The white film is probably a bacteria film from dosing NOPOX. It doesn't seem to hurt anything.

I don't think that makes a difference. I just do that to make sure all he bubbles are out. What difference would it make?

I've used it to feed my Acros, they have a great response to it. The trick is to feed it at night when the feeding polyps are out. I mix it with water in a shot glass and then add it to my tank...

You need to hire a pro tank sitter, like me! Except in your own city! People usually comment to me about how their tank looks better than when they left. :)

Bummer it's already on a stand!

I'd be happy with 1100 gph on your tank. I wouldn't call it bare minimum at all. Are you doing a full siphon drain like Herbie or Bean? If so, you don't want to...

I prefer 3-5x turnover through the sump since the skimmer can't process more than that anyway, and high flow risks microbubbles in the display. I've used Quiet One 6000 on tanks that size, but at 5...
