Any showing visual signs of disease

Generally, if your corals and invertebrates are fine but you are losing fish, it is a fish disease. Here is a post that explains the information that we need to try to figure this out for you:

water temp 72 no new fish just don't know why had these fish for about a year

72 is really low for reef tank. I always thought 75 to 76 was on low end.
In the wild they have all kinds of fluctuating temps but it changes quickly with currents and upwellings.

My low temp alarms are at 75

I set mine at 78 and am usually fine with it being between 77 and 80

Clear pictures are needed to accurately diagnose anything. Without that, everybody is just spitballing what the issue could be.

72 is on the lower side of normal, but is totally fine is consistant. I ran my old 210 at 72 due to specific fish needs for years withour any adverse effect.

If the tank ran cosnistantly 72, you'd be fine. If it swung 5+ degrees, youre stressing the animals.

Pics and video uner white light, posted to youtube and linked here, would be needed to help.

72 is WAY too low for a reef tank, unless you were keeping a specific colder water fish. I run mine at 78.
