Don't worry, we've all dealt with red slime before at some point, I have always dealt with it. Watch it, and do what you can to remove it. It is highly possible it will keep coming back. just be diligent about removing as much as you can. Also, be careful as it might grow on coral and or around it and either smother it or at least irritate it. Your parameters could be spot on and still get it. Its locking up something a miss so it might be undetectable. Just as the other members said, do what you can do to narrow it down the best you can. I've actually had red slime burn itself out after several weeks. Good tank hygiene. water changes, keeping the rock and sand clean, don't feed anymore that what the fish will eat in a very short period, good flow that will keep the food particulate and dissolved nutrients in the water column that can be skimmed off my the overflow and pulled out by your filter system (skimmer, carbon, gfo, algae in fuge, etc.)
