Will you post params please? Last time I took someone's word on normal params their Alk was WAY off. I do believe you though, 5 years in the hobby!

You dipped the coral you were most concerned about? Found no pest? No bugs crawling on them?

Is this affecting only acros/stags or are other coral showing signs of distress?

If not a pest, must be water related. How and what are you dosing? Perhaps a Triton test is in order?

I can't say it's not hydroids, but I think there's something else going on. SPS typically doesn't react like that to even hydroids.
