I would watch the tank closely and if it seems to happen at night where a big patch disappears I would stake out the tank one night looking for a worm or some other hitchhiker.

Hi, two things about your post that jump out at me, may or maynot be causing the issue;

1. is that you have doubled your tank size, but not your lighting, so you've cut their light by half.

2. Has your alk always been at 7? seems a tad low to me, and out of balance with your calcium.

sure hope it's not an stn event, and that it turns around for you.

When my corals have done that its because they weren't receiving enough light and/or flow.
