I don't think your specific gravity is the culprit, personally. How do you measure it, though? I had a swing hydrometer that was off by .006 once (my SG was at 1.031 and everything still looked fine, imagine my surprise)
Has anything else changed in the system?
No offense intended sk8r, I just know that in the past all of my corals have been very forgiving of SG and I would like to know more!

What kind of flow/lighting area do you have them in ?
magdelan
Fish?
I just bought a new "Coralife Deep Six" hydrometer. I have two Maxi Jet 600's in opposite upper back corners of the tank.
For lighting I have 2x96w actinics and and 1x150mh 15k. The actinics go on at 12pm and 1pm then the mh at 1:30pm. The mh goes off at 12am, the first actinic at 12:30am and the last at 1:30am.
I have brought the SG up to 1.025.

As far as your salinity goes, that will not cause any problems.
I recently did have a outbreak of flatworms (bought corals from a individual, didn't quarantine them) and the way I noticed the worms were my frogspawns and hammers were not extending like normal. Little brown spots, very easy to miss if you were not careful.
Not saying thats what it is, but something to check.
