Salinity is a little high and mag a little low. Do you keep a log of your parameters? Any large swings recently?

From where that damage is I would lean towards a potassium issue or a nudi. A big water change never hurts anything.

I keep a very loose log. On apex for cal alk ph temp and in my head for no3,no4, and salinity. No big swings

I have 5 digis in the tank that seem to be doing good, i think a big water change is in my future

I assume your reading of NO4 is really PO4(PHOSPHATES) 0.03 is no good. That would be the very bottom to keep it and given test error or fluctuations, it could easily be lower. Feed more. Flake, pellet or reef roids.
