welcome aboard the r2r board! hello from PA!

seems some of the corals are not happy. what do you test your water with? what are your water parameters?
Which ones don’t look good is it the Favia they all are fairly new the oldest one in the tank is the favia 1 month I use API Reef Master Test Kit and Red Sea Marine Magnesium test kit

As Of 3 Days Ago
I’m scheduled to do a 20% water change tmr and I use waste away every 2 days (3xs)
I dose coralife nano reef part a & b every other day and feed them Seachem reef zoo plankton 2x a week
Nitrate- 5.0 ppm
Phosphate- 0-0.25ppm
DKH - 9 /161ppm KH

Welcome! I’m sure you’ll fall madly in love with the hobby even more as time goes on and your collection grows!
Some things to watch for might be placement of your corals in regards to lighting and water flow requirements to keep them as healthy and happy as possible! Are you checking all water parameters or just the ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates?

ETA: you posted your parameters at the same time!
