It seems to happens about every 3-6 months or so, maybe. Generally pretty easy to tell when its going to happen, as it steadily gives more readings that tend to bounce around. It can sometimes happen suddenly though. This is the reason some people run multiple probes as it gives you a clearer idea of when one is getting out of alignment.

I'll try to get some pics today. The tank is still recovering from that phosphate spike a while back and I need to tear apart that pink birdsnest and remove all of the dead stuff.
What I have learned from this is always make big changes slowly and when you do test all parameters not just the ones you think will change. I thought my calcium or alk would be out of whack from removing big colonies and it was my phosphates.
I am back to changing 20 gallons a week and running GFO. I am thinking about adding bio pellets.

That stupid birdsnest is melting again. This time it's the alkalinity. I usually sit at around 7 dKh and tested today it was at 12 dKh. Funny thing is this coral was indestructible for a long time now everything affects it? It has become my tank barometer of health.
This has me thinking of adding more zoas, softies, and LPS because I'm sick of SPS melting when one parameter gets out of whack.
