Well i do not even know where to begin. It all started about a month or so ago. about a month before that i had kalk pour into my tank luckily nothing spiked and everything was fine and i siphoned out all the excess kalk and make sure to blow it off all my sps over and over again to make sure it wasnt settling on them. About a Month after that i started noticing STN on one of my monti caps that was previously growing as a weed. It began to turn white all around the edges and continued on until about 80% of it was completely white and dead. I then began to notice my SPS losing color turning brown and beginning to STN from the base up. I would frag them and glue em again even dip in iodine just to see. Still they continued to STN. I test my water at least twice a week with Salifert test kit. I always get 9 dkH for Alkalinity temp is at 77.5 steady. Calcium is at 500 Mg is at 1500 Nitrates showing 0 Phosphates show 0 Now i know both of those cant be 0 because i have hair algea growth and out of no where i had a cyano bloom. The tank has been up for over year. I run High Capacity GFO, I skim wet, do 20% water changes every 2 weeks. Have always used Kent Reef salt since the beginning of the tank and numbers have always tested the same. There are absolutel no pests in the tank myself and Decadence have looked over my SPS and everything else with a fine tooth comb and magnifying glass no Flaworms, no Red bugs, no nudibranchs nothing. Lights havent changed i run 2 D120 full spectrums. I run a 8 inch media back with Rox 8 Carbon and an 8in filter sock along with chaeto. I also vingear dose. I have tested for stray voltage i get nothing only .25v by my powerhead. I am seriously at a loss and cannot figure out what is going on. Its gotten so bad that i have Decadence holding some of my sps and they are coming back in his tank. I am about to build a stand and setup a 30gallon frag system just to house the SPS and get it out of the main display in the hopes this will help them heal why i try and figure out what is going on. Any help would be awsome as i am tapped out on ideas. everyone I have asked cannot figure it out. Decadence and I are at a loss. It sucks watching all of my once growing like crazy and crazy colorful sps waste away. Thanks guys! Justin
