Chris, daytime pH is 8.2. I hope I find it soon, before I get fed up and sell off my whole system.
I couldn't test last night. I'm going to test tonight though. Dependinig on the results I may run a light sump at night, but I'm not sure if that would interfere with dosing Liquid Reactor. Any thoughts Vanreefer?

I used liquid reactor with a lit sump without problem..
Do I understand correctly that you slowly filled the tank over a period of weeks? were the halides on during the weeks it took to fill the tank? Just a thought that possibly the corals were damaged (burnt) during this time... probably not tho.

What happens to the corals is that they are fine when I leave the house, and then when I come back their flesh has peeled away to reveal either green or white skeletons.

Green skeletons to me would mean that the coral tissue has been dead for some time and algea has had the oppurtunity to grow on the skeleton this would be a STN situation... do you notice a recession of tissue at the base of any of these corals before they lose thier tissue?... I am just thinking out loud here if anyone has more knowledge than I please chime in
What was your Ph tonight?
Did you add liquid reactor? if so what was your Ph 1 hour after?
Your sure their are no red bugs? once these little bast#rds get into a system they are usually there to stay?
hope you get this problem figured out soon
