Does my Aquarium have a Bacteria Infection?

Could my Aquarium have a Bacteria Infection?

Somebody mentioned this to me.

One of my Tanks has been Crashing (Corals Dying, if they din't Die then they lost Color).

I was blaming the Crash on GFO as that was the Only thing new I could think of but I ruled this out because I started using GFO in another Aquarium and ran into no problems.

The thing is is that all my Parameters are Great except Phosphate.

Temperature 78
Salinity 1.025
PH 8.2
Alkalinity 10
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 0
Calcium 450
Magnesium 1350

All My Acans are almost dead or have already died. (I transferred the ones not dead yet to another aquarium with Healthy Acans and now those Acans are almost dead too).
Most of my Chalices peeled right off the Skeleton (The "Fleshy" Chalices did anyways). My three Hollywood Stunners are alive but have lost some Color.
My Montiporas all Died or at least Lost Color.
But my Softies all seem happy (Zoanthids, Paly's, Green Star Polyp, Xenia, etc.)

Should I just take the Aquarium Down?

I even bought a Healthy Robust Perfect Acan and in just 2 Days I started to see Skeleton on that one!!
It is almost Dead now.

What is going on?

Could this all be from a Bacteria Infection?

What should I do?

Wish I had some answers for you. How many times are you checking your parms with this problem? Just making sure you have accurate reads and stability. It could be a bacteria. I added a chalice to my tank once and it died the next day. Immediately after I lost 5 or six Lps. Could this be something you are dealing with? I never treated that tank or new how to deal with it. I broke it down. I will be fallowing this one for the knowledge. Good luck.

If you think it might be bacterial perhaps a coral dip is in order. I have also heard of LED lights contributing to LPS losing flesh but not sure if that's true or not.

I feel for you. I lost 11 acan colonies and never figured it out. I dipped in iodine multiple times and it didn't seem to slow the recession at all. There was no brown slime either. The acans just receded until there was nothing left. I hope you figure something out.

I lost my first batch of Acans under LED.

This Batch was lost under T5 HO

This sucks so much as Acans are one of my Favorite Corals.
