I have had the tank set up for about 3-4 years. I have all the live rock from local pet stores, bali rock and fiji I believe

That is what I was thinking.. just do massive water changes...


What is strange is a lot of my GSP is not coming out.. which is nice as it is everywhere but a clear indicator that something is not right..



I have also been dosing amino acids lately.

It does sound like maybe your rock is starting to leach phoshates. You could try dosing FozDown. Salinity is a bit high as others have mentioned.
