Thanks Awlida it seems like most corals that were STNing slowed up a bit but the red planet still going. I will wait another few days to take action on it. My pearlberry i took out and dipped and crazy glued the STNing part hopefully that will recover

Still getting stning from corals. Its really really slow. I brought my salinity back up to 1.025 but i also just noticed my hand held algae scrubber is releasing rust into my tank. Its a pipe with a scraper and it fills up with when i get low in the tank and i turned it around and a cloud of orange dust was released. Now i dont know how long this has been going on because i never looked at the water when i spill it out but i noticed today. Nothing seems to be going right lately and its depressing. Red planet still stning, orange mille is pretty much gone,pink lemonade i just fragged yesterday to try and save and dipped and now its brown

I had same problem with algae scrapper...always have to take out and wash with fresh water
I don't think STN is from this but you never know?
Tank still looks good from pics but I know you know it does not.GL
Duke keep water parameters where they should be and wait it out. Clip off receding bases and cover the area with glue. Not much more that you can do. I would definitely get my hands on another refractometer to make sure your salinity is right this time.

sorry to hear and your tank was looking great when I saw it and it will again. It just takes more time to look good again than it does to go bad...keeping those perfect conditons for a long period of time without anything going wrong when so many things can is the most challanging part of this hobby...hang in there and you know what to do...GL
