Struggling with Coral

[mattH]

I have been struggling to get all types of corals to survive in my tank. Almost every coral I have added has died once I added it to the tank. The only that has survived and continued to grow has been a blue ridge. It is a 150gal that has been up and running for 2+ years now. It has 2 maxspect gyres, maxspect razor R420r light, reef octopus skimmer, and a chiller. I does NoPox and have gfo for NO3 and PO4 control. I also have a activated carbon in it right now to try to get rid of any unseen contaminants.

Levels:
Sal - 1.025
Alk - 8.7
Cal - 450
NO3 - 0
PO4 - 0.03

Any Ideas?

Thanks

What test kits have you been using and what types of coral have you tried adding?
