Help, I have been running my 75G BB SPS tank now for a little over a year now. Everything has ben doing great, growth, color, all parameters have been fine. All of a sudden on my Cali Tort, I started noticing less PE, then a couple of the tips started to slowly start to lost tissue, all the while these same tips were sort of, "spiderwebbing". My parameters are perfect still, and I haven't added anything recently to my tank that may have brought in some sort of bug. The one change I did do was to add a remote DSB to lower my nitrates. They were at 7ppm, and are going down. But, around the same time, maybe even a little before this started(don't remember the exact time frame)
Anyway, here's some pictures of what I'm talking about, it doesn't happen on every coral and many are still thriving, but, some of them still are affected by whatever is causing this.

Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Wish I had some advice for you... When I went BB I had the exact same problem with constant nitrates and tip tissue loss. Never could solve the PO3 problem and the tissue loss continued gradually killing several corals. I did finally find the cure for me though... sand :lol: Good luck hope you figure it out.
