Scolymia detaching- help!

[Cbear88]

I've had this scoly for a couple years now. Recently it's been inflating fine, tentacles out and feeding well. Now it has gone saggy lol and has detached from the skeleton a bit! It's literally like a flap. #PANIC

I was thinking of dipping it later and checking the parameters. These were the results of a few days ago:

Alk 12
Cal 455
Mag 1200
Nitrate 8
Phos
Ph 8.2
1.022

Since then it's had a water change and I put in two drops of iodine.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Phosphate was just over 0.03

My opinion is ALK is bit high and Sg is bit low. I recommend ALK is around 8 and sg is 1.025.

Retested salinity, it's raised to 1.024 over the last week. I'll check the alkalinity again later. Thank you for your reply

That happened to my scoly too. I corrected the water params then put superglue on the peeling part and managed to save it. It's only 1/4 the size now but still alive.
