Do you have a top off tank?
What works best in the UC system is if you have a top off tank and you mix it at a level to where the PPM in the system stays the same and at the target PPM and does not rise or fall.
Sounds like you might need more cal/mag, maybe on the next tank change go up to about 170PPM of cal/mag then add your Aqua Flakes base nutrients. But if you added 130PPM of cal/mag already then you should have plenty already.
All this advice and instruction is for healthy plants in a UC system, you might need to vary these instructions a bit if your dealing with sick plants that are not 100%.
One way to test is with foliage spraying. You can try to spray just one of the plants or even just a part of the plant and see if the plant improves. Mix up a cal/mag solution and see if it helps.
Cheers!
