Another update.
So I lowered my lighting (despite disagreement that it was too low of PAR for acros before on this thread) and left water parameters where they were. Already seeing an improvement over my grey/brown Slow Burn Monti. Color is returning and I see new growth. Other corals are starting to recover as well. So either it is coincidence or my tank is goofy and just does better under lower lighting.
I decided to remove the top arch on my rockwork and any corals that were on it and put the best remaining chunks in my frag tank until I feel it is ready for more sps again. Now I have a clean slate on that arch for those frags to go once I feel it is ready. Feels like a fresh start but I’m glad to see my corals doing better.
