My theory is they got to close and stung each other then both RTNed cause it started from the part that was almost touching (probably was ) so hopefully I can save this colony, checked my parameters and everything looks good no other colony's affected

Salinity 1.025
Phosphate 0.10
Calcium 420
Alk 7
Mag 1175 (still )
Nitrate 0ppm

Well hope this is the end of it, hate this hobby sometimes, hate when I can't control or didn't do anything to get this, I could see if I messed up a WC or didn't qt or screwed up dosing but random RTN is kinda sucky lol

Cheers pics tomorrow

going by the numbers have you stopped dosing alk?

7 is getting a bit on the low side doesnt leave alot of room for error
