I just spot fed corals and did a 15 percent water change. Let everything settle and came back about an hour and a half later to this.

Not entirely sure what is going on here but I am in the process of changing salts. Im doing it incredibly slowly because I was afraid of something like this happening. I've been adding 1 ppt salinity per water change and this is the third one I've done.

Other than that,

salinity is at 34 ppt
alk 8.0
cal 440
n03 10 ( tested prior to water change )

Not sure what my mag is at. A new test kit comes in on wednesday for me.

p04 always reads at 0.00 on hanna checker but some algae is always present so I'd assume its being consumed and unreadable.
 
This morning, the tearing is gone. No sign of new mouths or anything like that. It still doesn't look happy. It was much more puffy around the rim prior to the water change...:rolleyes:
