Dave, I hope you find something, because since adding the reacto, my tank has been stable but slow on the growth and color. most corals turning green when shuld be purples, blues, pinks etc. Weird casue my o2 is 7.8 and PH 8.2 stable

And going to look at Kedd's tank makes me want to go back to B-Ionic,

Let me know what you find.

Jim SPS turn green from excess phosphate. Check your levels.

I don't know what it is ,but ALL tanks are different and what works for one tank may not work for another.
I have seen great things with both a CA reactor and B-Ionic.

I must go on to say I have seen much more damage from a CA reactor gone bad than a doseing pump gone bad.

I had way too many barley pops(beer) and set mine wrong and dosed a gallon of each in 6 hours and only had to scrape the glass(for hours), but tank and all in it were fine.

from what rich is saying, it's indirectly related to phosphate, but it can be Ostreobium sp. boring algae growing inside out of the coral changing the coral's skelton, if conditions my present right for these algae to grow, eventually the coral dies and your left with a green skelton.
