A few quick ?'s have you fed heavy lately?
What's your po4 and no3? Have the params you posted been stable at that or have they fluctuated at all?

Have you changed the flow in your tank by moving rock or had a power head die??? Have you recently added any fish that are nippers??? Only two things I could add that I would suspect. Good luck hope you figure it out.

Personally, I don't dose anything except for Alk/Calc/ and Mag once in a while when low. I just do regular water changes. No need to fall for dosing sales gimmicks. They might do more harm then good unless you have test kits for stotium i would just let it be.
