Did a water change about a week ago, they have not been the same since. I used RO water and the same salinity. I also add coral Up every few days. They were beautiful and now they don't look happy any recommendations?

Something has made them upset. My guess is the coral up. One key rule I go buy is do not add a chemical you can't test for. There is no need to add a product like coral up without knowing that your strontium, iodine, etc, is low. Especially after a water change, you could have overdosed an element. I would stop the coral up and just continue a routine water change regimen. Test all your current parameters like alkalinity, calcium and magnesium to make sure there are no major swings.
