I don't have many fish.
2 clowns
2 cardinals
1 yellow tang
4 chromis

When it was red it was deep maroon. When we moved in January it took about a month to get the calc and alk stabilized since I was dealing with more water volume. Once those stabilized the red turned to brown slime.

Phosphates and nitrates don't register at all. It is tested twice a month and never shows results, I am sure because the slime is consuming it.

Ok so if it's Dino's what are the best options? This maintenance of this tank is pretty vigilant so it's frustrating that it is having this many issues and loosing all my corals just exacerbated the frustration? Oh and I use RODI water and I changed the membranes when we moved and replenish the resin once it reads 001.

I have (1) unique 50lbs large rock with an arch that is important to me other than that I could care less if I replaced the rest. I was planning on getting a shipment from Tampa Bay but until this slime is under control I don't want to risk spreading to new rock.
