Default Probio Review (week 1 update)

Its been 1 week since I first started using this system so it was time for a 10% WC, some tests, and a dose of 1 ampule of strontium.
Test parameters were as follows:
SG 1.025
Alk 9 (will raise to 11)
Cal 520 (used a brand new kit, guess the old one was FUBAR despite
having 1 year left to expiry)
Mag 1440
Phos .04ppm
Nitrate 6ppm

Observations: Haven't noticed any big changes in the tank this week but I do think my sand bed does look cleaner and I think I only cleaned the glass once this week. As for my indicator corals (the ones with no PE and/or poor coloring) I have'nt noticed any real changes. However my wife commented that she thought that the corals that weren't struggling were looking better. She doesnt stare incessantly at the tank 20 times a day like I do so she may notice the changes easyer than I do.
She made the comment that my Dark green Digitata looked "Greener and fuzzyer" and my Pocillopora looked "fluffyer". All very scientific, I know
Stay tuned.......
