After measuring I want make the following adjustments:
Back the alk dose off (Alk 7.448).
Keep Calcium dose the same but manually make up additional doses (Ca 380)
Stop dosing mag for this week (Mg 1440)
Added half can GFO last week. Phosphates are zero. A marked improvement. Will keep eye on nitrates to see if limiting phosphates will cause them to spike.
Alk is pretty low. Upping dose to 10 ml per day.

After removing gfo phosphates jumped from 0 to 0.11 in 5 days. Nitrates rose as well from 20 ppm to 25 ppm. I plan on increasing vodka from 0.4ml per day to 1.4 ml per day.

Removed GFO from system as nitrates are 20 ppm and phosphate is 0. Thinking bacteria is limited by phosphate. Also turned off UV sterilizer.
