Problem in part is high mag and insufficient phosphate . These guys like a little phos in their water as well as iodine and potassium.
Moderate light and water flow. . feed 2-3x per week
mag 1300
CA 450
Ph 8.1 - 8.3
alk 8-9
salinity 1.025
temp 77-79
nitrate < .04
Ammonia < .05

Yeah def some mag troubles in the salt. Consistent tests for a good 6 months. I started dosing Red Sea trace 3-4 months ago. Saw improvement in all coral. Especially acans, zoos , and elegance.

Elegance coral tonight looks great... about the same flow.

Bacterial?

Thanks
