I've heard/seen bits and pieces falling off, but actually disentigrating? Never heard of that. But I may be wrong. What kind of rock is it? What is your alk and ca readings?

The only way I can think it could actually break down is if the PH is acidic... like below 7 Otherwise, its probably algae or something falling off the rock. The best way to be sure is to post up a pic |
