You definately need to have all your test kits, parameters and chemicals for dosing in order before tackling sps.... at least if you are new to salt water. Also, regular water changes with IO (10 - 25% every 2 or 3 weeks) should keep your Alk around 8 to 10, depending on your coral load.

Ahh I thought I was going slow! But I guess I need to go slower.

I went the other way around coral and then fish after the tank cycled...

I change the water once a week. But only 10 gal water change. Probably need to do a bigger water change?
