Button Polyp Release Toxins?

So I have a thread going that explains that for the last 3 days my acros have very little polyp extention. So I thought what did I do different and I did purchase a big rock from a fellow rc member and I had to move other rock around in the display to make room for the big rock. Well I just noticed that I put a rock on top of a rock full of Button Polyps, now I know these guys are toxic but can they release toxins to were I would see my acros not extending thier polyps? I am just going nuts trying to figure this one out. All water tests come out ok.

A water change and new carbon is going to happen tomorrow.

water changes of at least 25% - 30% are about all i know of that you can do.

Yeah make shure you run some carbon not lbs of it . This will take care of any toxins that are still there and a water change may help too and if you don't dose iodine try some if those zoos where smashed
really hard this my help them heal. Go easy on the iodine to ,your sps doesn't like a lot of it.
