So I am am not getting pe in some of my acros. And I am trying to figure this out.
Ammonia is undetectable
Nitrite I don't have a Test for
Nitrate between 0 and 5 it's really hard to tell which color
Alk 162 ppm and steady 9.072 dkh
Phosphates 0(API test but no change in color at all)
Ca is 500
Flow is two wp40 one on wave one on else mode
I checked all for pest none found
No fish that are known coral nippers
Is it to much light not enough light
Do I need to add cube of Cyclopes once a week

blah.. leave it alone... if everything tests fine, let em be... just maintain your water changes and dont overfeed...your corals get enough from feeding the fish...

I really am not tinkering with anything except water changes or testing the water. I don't have very large fish load so is it possible I am not feeding enough and water is to clean.

So that's about three months. I will never pretend to be any expert but in my experience you kind of have to hit that golden time frame of 5-6 months of running with no issues before the system is established and stable enough for acros to really thrive. You may just need to be patient.
