Are my parameters good?

[DoINeedAName?]

Temperature F°: 79-80
Salinity: 1.023 - 1.024
pH: 8.2
Phosphate: 0.0 mg/L
NO3 (Nitrate): 0.0 mg/L
KH (Alkalinity): 11.4 ppm
Ca (Calcium): 425 ppm

I use Salifert tests for everything except phosphates, for phosphates I used a MultiTest kit.
In my tank I have two Condy Nems, one Blood Orange Misbar clown, one Orchid Dottyback, three Whitetail Damsels, one Emerald Crab, one Arrow Crab, two Pincushion Urchins, some red and blue leg hermit crabs, and variety of snails including Margaritas, Astreas, Nassarius, Nerites, and Ceriths.

What's in you Aquarium?

Assuming your phophate/nitrate reading are correct I would suggest getting some nutrients in there. Especially with your alk on the high side. Tanks can be ok with that high of alk, but the lower your nutrients usually the harder to run a tank with higher alk without running into issues.

I updated it to tell you

would I use for nutrients? Any favorites/good suggestions?

I would just feed a bit more of what you are feeding now. Dont want to go crazy but it is good to at least have a little nutrients register on test kits.

I had the same problem being zero on N03 and P04. I started getting a bacteria white slim and corals were bleaching. I feed the fish and coral a lot more and dosed Brightwell NeoPhos as directed . P04 is now 0.070. N03 is still almost nothing but tank is doing a lot better. You can also turn off your protein skimmer for a while.

…and variety of snails including Margaritas…

I know it’s a little late, but Margarita snails and snails sold as “Margarita snails” (ex. Tegula) prefer temperatures in the 50’s to low 70’s (Fahrenheit).

Explains why mine were all crab food within a few weeks....

I will not purchase more Margaritas then, I want to keep the temp steady where it is. Margaritas a very good though, had them since tank was set up.

As others have said, get some nutrients in there.

if possible, get some nutrients in your system by feeding more, having more livestock (if it’s doable), and then test daily (Or every other day) until you can see a trend in where your system settles. It’s a natural (to an extent) system so if left alone it should settle to a quasi equilibrium. If you can get some consistent tests which give you an idea of the highs and lows your system settles on, you won’t have to chase a number. Rather you’ll know the range you need to maintain to keep your systems balance going.

+1 for more no3 and po4 required
And alk is on the high side too
Check your magnesium too.
