Have you done a triton test? Possibly something in your water you don't know? Worth a try to eliminate another variable

I see you are wearing gloves. Are you dipping your gloves in all the way. Letting water fill up inside the glove? There is no powders on the outside of your gloves. On the inside they use a powder to keep them from sticking to your arms/hands. I know the outside of a latex glove is mostly a cornstarch powder. Not to much to worry about there. I am not sure what they use on the inside of the long rubber gloves.
Also is someone else using the gloves for cleaning when you are not around?
Sorry about the amount of loss you are suffering. I did have 2 melt from Chemi Pure Elite. Which is a GFO. As I was reading through all the posts. I was hoping by the end it might be something as simple as that.
The gloves I use are shoulder length. No water has been inside them. I'm the only one that uses the gloves and cleans the tank. Here is a link to the spec's of the gloves: http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=25864

No I haven't. It sounds very interesting and I would like to try this. What is the site? I tried googling the site and it's a little confusing on how to request a water test.

Hi!
High magnesium. It isn't really good.

Try to reduce density to 1.024
It is necessary to check correctness (!) of measurement of density.

Doesn't love Eufilliya
the directed current. And always well react to iodic bathtubs. It is possible to use https://www.aquaristikshop.com/aquaristic/Tropic-Marin-Pro-Coral-Cure-200-ml/307061/

It is possible to strengthen addition of bacteria from any producers, it is useful for corals. Also it is possible to try a little live phytoplankton.

I am dealing with a whole new issue. My tank cracked 2 days ago and trying to keep my fish alive while the tank sets up over the next few days.
