    Default Hammer coral not opening and losing tissue...

    Again, I am new to this so I am reading up as much as possible. I have a hammer coral that didn't open up today. It also seems to be giving off clear/white tissue or slime. I checked the water late last night and everything seemed to be normal.
    Temp 78.9
    Salinity 1.022
    pH 8.2
    Alk 2.72
    KH 7.6
    Ammonia 0
    Nitrite 0
    Nitrate >20
    Phos 0
    Calcium 340

    I don't have many corals in there at all, in fact these were some testers after my zoas quit opening a few weeks ago. The fish, crabs, snails are all doing fine. Any suggestions?

    P.S. I did add some pre-cured live rock (15lbs) on Saturday, but they were fine saturday after and on sunday. I already have 50+lbs of live rock and the system has been up for about 2 months. I checked the water yesterday and everything was fine. No spikes or anything since I added the rock Saturday.
