Any help with the spreading stn.
After my phosphorus dropped to zero a few weeks ago I ended up losing three colonies.
Po4 is now 0.02
No3 10
Mag 1350
Alk 7.2
Salinity 1.025
Cal 450.
Not sure if this is typical fallout from zero po4 .

Carbon dosing, vinegar, also causes stn. Stop the vinegar and your corals will recover
 
I would boost your alk level some too. Seems when I get that low or much above 9.5 I start to have problems.
