All my params are perfect. Dkh-7,Calcium-420,mag 1300,nitrates 10.
Everything has been kept like this since i can remember. But now in the last couple days some of the sps are losing the flesh from the tips down. And it is getting proggressivly worse. I just attributed it all to the ro as nothing else has changed.No chemicals in the air nothing has litterally changed.
And these are large established colonys that are going.

Do you have DI as well? If your membrane is going I think the DI will still keep your TDS down it will just shorten it's life.
Did you check TDS from the membrane?

No i was out of di but managed to find some of that so it is back down to 0 again. Problem is i think its to late as all the tips of all the sps are now losing flesh. And the montis are losing flesh as we'll.

whatever i guess if they go im done. I can't continue to sink this much money into it and lose them all.I am going to fill up my wifes tank today now that the tds is at 0 and see if i get them out of that water if they will stop stn'ing. Clip the tips of and hope that all is we'll"(

Get out the yellow pages and look up water filtration or treatment. You should come up with something. I've heard Trail Appliances advertise some sort of water treatment system. My old ro system was a Culligan, there should be a dealer up there somewhere. I've got filters from the Reef Shoppe, not sure if he keeps membranes, but if he does the bus would have it to you by tomorrow morning. Don't panic!!
