Hello and Welcome to R2R! I too have a 180g reef tank. I also had trouble keeping sps and finally I have one that was doing well until something hit it and it fell down on other corals.
I know, right!?!
I’ve tried and tried even with the “beginner” ones. No joy.
 
Greetings
I’m proud to be a part of this amazing group of fellow hobbyists.
I’m a 68 year old grandpa who’s been in the hobby since the mid seventies and I’ve made just about every mistake that can be made and learned a little something from each. But you know, you never know it all and I’m constantly trying to learn more.
I have a 180 gallon reef tank with fish and mostly leathers, LPS, Zoas and Palys. I have a registered black thumb when it comes to SPS.
I also have given mister Neptune countless dollars and have almost every automation I can. I try to make the hobby a hobby and not a job. Been there done that.
Anyway Howdy
Greetings and Welcome! I love it. An old-timer (no, not in age, in experience!)! I just entered my 6th decade (or is it 7th taking into considering I entered at Zero instead of One?). Need to think about that!
