Please don't take this the wrong way, but it looks like there is some diatom build up on those rocks, the issue may be from water quality as well.
i had the same issue for the first nine months or so of my tank which left me with some very unhappy nems. phosban as well as purigen worked wonders for me. as well as a VERY good clean up crew.
best of luck

Very possible, i was tdy with the army for 3 months with my wife at home taking care of it for me lol. I am still in tank recovery mode as she is not as enthusiastic about this hobby as me, but everything is still alive. I am back to regular weekly to every week and a half water changes. I also think my cuc is too small. 7 nessarius snails, 2 astrea snails. 2 shrimp, 2 hermit, 1 emerald. Plan on adding more this week. My tank is only going on 5 months. I am having a diatom build up for sure though. My flow is good from what I've seen. Have an MP 10 with a decent wave produced. I am building a refugium today and dropping the canister filter. Hoping these will all be positive changes. Thanks again for the attention.
