Bummer. Hope the new generator does it for you. You've eliminated the possibility of fish nibbling at them?

No, that is not the problem...although the angels do start to nibble once the tips are dead and covered with algae. If the ozone does the trick, I'll nip off all the dead SPS tips so they can regrow.

Do you think there would be any merit in rotating the salt brands you're using?

My corals did the same thing due to a voltage leak. Do you have a ground probe or two?

I do have a ground probe...but I'll give it a cleaning. No harm in that.

I've been dealing with a lot of dead coral lately, so when I saw a big dead area in one of my coral heads I cut it out aggressively.

When I looked closely at the part I removed, it was covered with eggs. It seems that my yellow coral gobies have started breeding...and I wiped out their first home. Sorry...I'm sure they will try again.
