Hello,

I have a 50 gallon reef tank SPS dominate. This year the tank went through a few downs and ups. Salinity was off, to high, had flukes so dosed prazi-pro, return pump stopped running during the night and woke up to just my MP40 circulating water… with a temp dip from 78F to around like 72, if my brain registers correctly. That said, I’m always in a state of STN on some monitporias and maybe a miagi-tort (excuse the spelling). The tort is showing skeleton at parts of the base, but a fish sleeps in that area. That’s why i say maybe? Attached is an ICP. Iodine is high because of my sea-weed, I’m assuming. My lacking trace elements is ordered. Will be using a custom solution from Captiv8.

Looking to see if you guys see something I don’t. Or, have additional input that could help me. I’ve lost some good acros and montis. The most frustrating part is the continued battle with corals loosing flesh. Mainly the same monti colony. But a few others seem to be affected as well.

Thanks for you guys input.

Consider adding a full tank shot, perhaps something will jump out.

Also add an image of the affected montipora.
