Cool looking tank! Glad you got the heat issue worked out

The CA being that high won't really hurt anything, but I would raise your Alk to 3.0 or maybe 3.5,.. You may find that once you do that your CA drops. I like to keep my Alk at 3-3.2 or so and CA around 420 long term, but it will take a bit for your tank to settle out I think.
