| I cannot come up with anything either. I had exactly the same thing happen to me a couple of years ago. I finally blamed it on my Ca fluctuation and bought a Ca reactor. |

I would do a couple more back to back water changes...at least what you did before.  | Could be, but they are not anywhere near each other. Actually, now that I think about it, I did a back to back water change(20g each) not to long ago and I think thats when it started. Could that be the problem and how do I fix it? |

| Run a boat load of carbon in case something polluted the tank. Double check the temp of the tank to make sure the thermometer is reading right. The only other thing I can think of is, was the water you added to the tank temp adjusted? If not you could have shocked the clam and coral.
