What should I do to bring my alk up and keep it stable.

Find an alk product that you want to use.

And dose that daily to keep your alk stable.

Lock the alk and cal to the salt that you use. So those will stay stable when making water changes.

JMO...
The Red Sea "Blue Bucket" mix is what I'd use for the corals you have.
It's alk comes in at about 7.8 dkh when mixed right.

Get a good refractometer and keep it calibrated by using .35 solution.

Here's the directions...

Fritz part-1:

Each ml of Pt 1 will increase the alkalinity in 1 US gallon (3.78 L) of water by 2.1 dKH (0.75 meq/ml). One teaspoon (5 ml) will raise 10 US gallons by 1.06 dKH (0.38 meq/L). Do not exceed 5 ml per 10 gallons daily, and always avoid an immediate +/* 0.2 change in pH.
