Sorry, don't see that, respectfully.
I do the same thing all the time.

Water is too clean. Also in the pics it doesn't really look that bright. Are you running mostly actinic T5 bulbs? By wattage you should have enough light (depending on height off the surface) if you have the right mix of bulbs but it just doesn't look very bright in any of the pics.
I agree. You could try to spot feed some of your corals.I see low PO4 and you said undetectable NO3. This is very dangerous and could be the very reason why your corals are dying.

Coral frenzy, BRS Reef chili, any other similar item. Spot feeding may help them directly and help your water from being to clean.
Also, have you tried a par meter to see if they are getting the right light. Will uln increase light intensity?
Thats not what I meant. Your intensity might be too high.No I did not measure the lux. But I can increase the intesity gradually to 90%.
I am worried if I add any coral it will die. So I will wait until I come to know the reason/s behind it and solve it first
I know this is going to sound weird, but have you checked for stray voltage? Might be something to look into...

Don’t be afraid to feed your tank. I don’t know how you run your tank, but many eek at the sight of algae and kill feedings which is never a good thing.I feel sorry for all the lost corals and frustrated as it seems corals are dying for no clear reason after doing so good.
I agree. T5’s are the safest lights in my opinion. You can overboard (or underboard) without fail. Your lighting is similar to what I used to run. I wouldn’t point my finger at lighting one bit.I don't think this is the problem. The light fixture is 30cm above the tank + 70cm to the bottom.
I wouldn’t add any corals. Spot feed the ones you have. Use a turkey baster or a small liquid oral syringe.

Regardless of what you feed and how much at this time, you said your NO3 is bottomed out. Therefore, you can add more fish, add varied feedings, pull GFO, adjust water changes accordingly, etc. Obviously something needs to change.Also I feed the fish till they refuse to eat and I don't have cleaning crew except snails. So any left over of the food can because NO3.
