Hey all--I'm in the process of converting my FOWLR tank (200g DT, 170g of sump/fuge) into a reef tank. I added my first LPS about five days ago. Here's a photo of it today:

You can see some erosion/ulceration/something on the bottom right and then just a bit above that. I don't think I have anything in the tank that would snack on the coral--although I suppose it's possible--so I wonder if you can identify what's going on here. Right now it's placed in what I would describe as moderate light and moderate flow. Water params are 0/0/10, and my Ca/alk/mag are somewhat low (350/7.8/1200) but I've been bringing them up this week. (I doubt Ca/alk/mag would cause this in 5 days anyway.)
Any insights would be most appreciated.
Thanks!
