okay my lfs sold me on some c-balance and i had my calcium and phosphate tests on order from big als so i didn't test it before i started dosing... :?

now my calcium is at a whopping 700ppm (did 2 tests here)
alk- 3 meq/l
ph-8.0-8.2
nitrate-5
nitrite-0
ammonia 0+
phos-0-20ppm

keep in mind these readings were done the evening after an ro/di water change...

things are getting very colorful as far as coralline is concerned but should i be nervous here and what can i do to bring things to a more reasonable level?
 
I would try to bump up the ALK to 4.5 or so and lower the Calcium to 450.
