I would recommend getting a good reef salt especially since your rocks are so clean. Instant ocean salt is a fairly low end salt. Just looking out for you. My shop uses Red Sea coral pro and I’ve had great results. I used instant ocean before and things were not nearly as colored up, due to the lack of trace elements. Also my earlier comment about the light. Yes I have used it personally on a 55 gal. Everything died, switched to kessil, got new coral. Everything is doing amazing. Most people do kessil or AP for a very good reason; those companies did a ton of research finding the best spectrum for corals and how to deliver it in the brightest most energy efficient package, and they did a fantastic job doing so.
If you add a t5 you will be fine. The current light will be cool supplemental.
I enjoyed reading your build! Excited to see you stock it !
