Big problem need help

My tank has been flourishing for the past 3 years and all of a sudden within the past 3 weeks ive noticed that a mojority of my sps are turning brown and the tips all look like they have been burned and algae has grown on them for the life of me i cannot figure out what is going on. Some of my acros look great but many of them are brown and look like there dying. My water is perfect, my Mhs are only 5 months old and there are no signs of parasites. Any help would be much apprciated.

check to make sure one of your bulbs isnt cracked. It kind of sounds like UV burn
