Nope, I’ve never dosed anything at all, I’ll try and find another salt mix but this the reef crystals have been doing really well

Previously, I had levels of around 13-14 and calcium levels of 480, and now there at around 14-15 and 550, nothing has changed though, I even added my first “hard” coral in hopes that they would suck out some cal and alk but they didn’t

OK, I'd definitely look for a low alk salt mix. Or drop the alk in the reef Crystals before using it for water changes.
