I don't know what's in your tank.. I don't really know. I just so wish there was a way to find out.

unnaffected are about 50 snails, 2 CBS and 3 stroms

Have you read this on polyp bail-out? Fundamentally, it is obviously a symptom of stress, but the mystery as to what set it off obviously remains.

Just an objective observation here - I think @aussieant32 is well over trying to figure this out.

 

[aussieant32]

it is just going over information that has already been gone over, or looking for something that due to other factors cant exist. I do not know what caused it, I have binned all the corals that looked like they were struggling so as not to infect any corals I am selling in the shut down

If the rest do okay then it must have been a transient thing - and like you say cannot be figured out.

Everything can be figured out, it's just how much more time and money I want to put in. Sadly they are both close to 0

As am I.

sorry to hear. It is clearly something in your water. Maybe you got a bad batch of calcium, mag or some other additive that has some nasty in it that we cant test for. Just shut it down bleach the F! out everything, get new live rock and start
again.Keep you chin up.

Again the stuff I add is in 15 litre drums at 10ml roughly a day, that batch has been getting added for months so odd it started happening all of a sudden. And everything would have been effected.

I am certain it was a disease or parasite it is the only thing I cannot rule out. Tank is shut down now anyway.
