Maintaining CA & ALK hasn't been too difficult for me. The only times it's difficult is when I'm lazy and haven't taken the time to figure out how much is being used/how much to dose. Now I've settled into a pretty regular routine and I test sporadically. I don't have a calcium or kalk reactor, but dose with Turbo Calcium and Kent Superbuffer.

Nick, you might be on the right track.
I put the Tek Light on the tank and fired 2 of the 4 bulbs on for about three days, then put all bulbs on. Corals dying over time has always been an occurrence for me. Corals just won't do well for some reason.

Have you always had that problem? Corals slowly dying?

I'm guessing its either lighting, or something in the water your not testing for. What kind of water are you using?

Interesting. But your fish thrive?

Yeah. I've had a pair of percs for a year, a Lubbock's wrasse and some other fish that show good signs of health. I won't list the others for the sake of avoiding a debate about my fish husbandry.
I recently had an outbreak of hair algae too, does that mean anything?
