well i think i may have finally kicked the dinos. dont know what 1 thing killed it but i tried alot of different things. heres a list

replaced ro/di filters twice
cleaned all pumps and redirected wavyseas
more water changes/ less water changes
replaced MH bulbs
cut feeding down to every 3 or 4th day
turned CA reactor off
tested any water associated with tank
ran lots of carbon
excessive sandbed syphoning and cleaning rocks
wet skimming
chemipure
the final draw was an 8 day blackout which killed it off finally. but the dino spread was so big that when it died off it completely polluted the tank and killed alot of corals and caused a big chain reaction of death.

but so far it has not returned. most of the corals really really browned out but now they are starting to color up again. all LPS but 2 frogspawns died. we'll see how it goes. i really hope it doesnt come back though
