Houston the QT has a Problem... SPS RTN high PO4

[BighohoReef]

So I come down to make coffee this morning and find this happening in my QT tank,

PO at .5ish tested twice
Ammonia: 0
Nitrite: 0
Nitrates: 10
Ca: 415
Alk: 8.3
Mg: 1230
Gonna do a water change, probably head to the store today to grab some phosguard.
Any other suggestions? Should I pull the RTN piece out of the tank? Or leave and hope for a come back?

That piece is a goner. How long have you had it?

FIgured, It's been in QT for about 3 weeks now. It wasn't in the best shape when I got it either, was trying to nurse it back. Unfortunately when you don't have stable parameters...

Probably more underlying issues with the coral than your system. Do you have other acros in there? If yes, how do they look?

Just one other, the PC rainbow I don't see anything wrong with it but it could be coming. Planning on moving all of the remaining SPS to the DT (digi monti and ORA birdsnest). My big pearl coral and small colony of zoas weren't fully opened this morning... everything else looks fine though. The nem is also fully extended which I would think if there was a major issue it wouldn't be in that state.

Scooting around looking to see what I could dig up...

Ran into this the other day on my recommended feed, havent taken a listen, but he always has good advice.
