The morning everything was still normal but tonight I found out that there’s some sort of white slimy stuff covering the rock and hair algae.

Tank parameters as follow:
150 gal
KH9
Ph 7.8
Ca 520
Mg 1380
No3 0
PO4 0
Temperature 76
Salinity 1.026

Should I be worry and do sth?
All sps softy lps are doing still good though.
Only thing I add to the tank was vibrant yesterday night. I been dosing it for 3 month weekly.
 
I'd lay off Vibrant for awhile.

just thinking out loud... ;Wacky
Is there anyway that aerosol vapors could have got into your reef, and fueled the bacteria bloom?

Or did you try an new salt mix, that contains an "carbon source" within the mix?
 
I only have a skimmer and it’s been the same for these 5 month. No micro air bubble is the DT though
