You should test for Mag and bring it up to 1300, the mag will make sure your Cal and pH stay put at the right levels. The only problem I can really think of, as I mentioned above, your pH will flactuate too much and cal. will drop. BUT even though you need your mag. up, I wouldn't mess with any more chemicals anymore, let your tank cycle and then you can worry about everything else.
