the only parameter swing i know is from 25 celcius to 26.7 and then Down to 26.2 and now it stays there. My nitrate and phosphate is 0 which i cant get up. Magnesium and calcium is good, alkalinity dkh is 9.5. Coraline is Also doing fine it looks like.
 
your ALK is too high due to low nutrients. Alk burn. increase your nutrients , reduce your alk.
 
if given the right conditions , they will recover.

I received an Acro that was completely bleached due to a temp swing during shipping. In 3 weeks it has recovered. colors are returning.


here's what it looked like when i received it.
