Yikes. Do you know what is wrong? Sorry to see that happen to your beautiful reef.

There two things that I doubt.
1. I use local fish food which with unknow medicine in it. That fish food is for curing some disease it may not able to put into SPS tank.

2. I build FRP water tank for my tank as backup water in my house. Recently I found the mfg uses coating on the surface of tank inside. But it with blue color I do not know it is epoxy or other painting.

Currently I change 250L(25% of total water) water everyday to see any help on them.
 
I'm sorry to see hose dead corals!
If it was meds in the food, have you added carbon?

Yes, I did it. I exchange 30g every two days but still can not stop it.

Maybe the volume not enough but I also afraid that it will speed up the peel problem if I put too many of it.
 
Another problem from my backup water tank, the mfg told me the surface use epoxy but I do not believe it is. When I clean the tank inside the slight blue color just peel it off!!

Can't wait to see them in action elton!
Did the situation improved a bit,regarding the corals?

The situation just as before, but I move over 50% of corals to my friend Shih's tank last week.
I may be will re-work on system when I get fresh rocks(maybe 3 months later).

So currently my plan just keep them as it.
 
Hate to tell you elton but something tells me this move is permanent:p:p:p

Jokes aside,i hope everything will go like you have planned:beer:

If my corals can grow healthy in Shih's tank I really do not mind permanent or not.

If everything goes well I will try to get more better corals for my tank.
Hahaha!

Elton has very sharp eyes and hunting skills to find rare, value coral species in Taiwan market, to keep him motivated, yes, I should not allow he bring these coral back... Hahaha....

Just kidding...Your corals are safe in my place. It is always a good idea to divert the risk, so, I will keep some frags for sure.

BTW, they all look good with great PEs in my tank so far and as in the red box below....

Note: There are 3 to 4 big colonies that I hide them in the center of my rock, which are not showing in red boxes above.

New landscape for 2016. Everything settle in X'mas eve...

Looks like integrated rocks for a completed model but in fact they are with 5 individual reef islands.

Need one more pic from top view.
 
I hope I can expedite the maturation of my system so that when Shih wants to re-do his tank, may be he can send his corals to my tank then.
