My tank has been in declide due to a Dino outbreak for a couple months and this last week everything has began slow crashing. The Moniporas are all bleaching hard, the montipora digi is having poly baiout, the acros are getting tissue recession at the tips and bases, and the softies are happy as ever. Im running crabon and regular 15% weekly water changes fuge with skimmer. I did a few things to make my situation worse: I changed for Hydra 26 to 4x T5 2 weeks ago. I dosed up for 0 nitrate to 20 in the course of a week with fuge off and po4 blasted up to .4 which caused my nutrients to go nuts and ticked off the coral. When that didnt do anything for Dinos I tried to drop Nitrates back to 5 using the fuge which took another 2 weeks but actually made my Dinos even happier and in the mean time corals even more ticked off. Honestly I dont really know what to do at this point except wait for everything thats going to die to die. Definitely made some huge mistakes trying to fight Dinos and now not sure what to do, the dino thread didnt really give any clear guidance except to buy UV (which wont arrive till friday) so advice appreciated.
