Ca, Mg, Kh

I have a 32 bio cube— all my numbers where fairly good and holding- one week Kh from about 9-12, mg from 1400-1600, ca- 450-600, my salinity always between1.025-26, mix my own with Red Sea black , changed water on Sunday, about 25- came in monday 21, stopped dosing done my normal water changes, even used premix salt figuring would bring numbers down.. salinity steady1.025- Kh down to 10, mg still about 1600- ca about 500 , and like I said 5 gallon water changes every week- when numbers exploded all my coral started freaking most seem to be back.. was told it was the weird overnight salinity drop, any ideas for a long winded first conversation

Welcome aboard

your parameters are way out hence your corals are protesting.
hopefully you can correct without losses.
good luck and we are hoping you will start a build tread so we know what are you up to ;)
