HELP - Mille is peeling

New member
I have a Red/Purple Millepora table that has been housed in my tank for over 6 months. It is about mid height, center tank under T5 Constellation Fixture (7x54w). I'm running full Zeo. Params are in-line bulbs are less 8months old ran 8hrs/day.

Last nite, I noticed the center base of the Mille Table is pure white, like the flesh has peeled right off. I've dealt with AEFW in the past, and usually, the affected areas gradually discolor with a more greenish tone. The symptoms that I am seeing is pure white acro skeleton, then back to the red/purple flesh, similar to how it would look when aiptasia is stinging SPS, but there is no aiptasia anywhere!!! No host comensal crabs either.

All other SPS is fine. Growth, color PE, etc etc. Anyone ever experience this issue. Fishes are, Yellow Scopas, Yellow Belly Regal, Choco Tang, chromis, B/W Osc Pair, Skunk Pair & a Melanrus Wrasse. No Softies, 1 Lobo, 1 Duncan, 4-5 Zoo colonies and the rest is all SPS. Havent added anything for the past 2 months (ls or equiptment). Scarlet Hermits, Astrea Snails.

H-E-L-P!!!
 
If it's from the base, it could be an alk issue, it will help once you provide readers here with your system's current parameters.
 
It's not in direct flow is it? I had a milli that started doing that and found out I had too much flow over in that section of the tank. The flow was redirected off the glass on the other side of the tank. Check your flow.....

No, it not in direct flow. Its currently located in the center of the tank. My penductors and powerheads are mounted on both ends of the tank. Its a 100g Regular, so its approx. 60"
