Since "xenia" is melting, I presume its because your water is too clean.

Being u dose 3 ion after a WC I would be curious what ca and mg are at. Salinity is pretty high IMO of ca to start.

Alk is high also

I tried the 3 ion but didn't like three mix in one. Really no control of individual. How long have u used the 3 ion

just started using props wont again, was an all of a sudden thing just happened randomly after wc i woke up and was melted down to the trunk (ifn it can be called that) right now its starting to bascially "sluff"off into the tank. it looks like there are some bits left underneath but I dont know for sure. Just waiting. Did another water change about 20% did 20% yesterday and pros 3 5%'s since I noticed the issue. right now everyone is closed up and unfortuneately I dont have a QT tank nor can I move the rock out. so I basically have to attempt to save him through water changes or watch him slowly disintegrate
