All my fish are dying HELP!

Also how do the corals look?

How big where all the fish

All of them were about 1-2 inches, the biggest fish was the clownfish.

Up or down? Why do you believe it fluctuates more at night? How much do you believe it moves? Have you looked at the temp in the night?

It most likely goes down at night to around 74-75, and when I say at night I mean 1-4 am, I also don’t have a heater and my house is kept at around there

A lot can happen in the dark how are your other fish looking?

The wrasse and goby are looking good, all the inverts are looking good too

Could they have been attacked how big is the wrasse?

This is likely a water chemistry issue. Before jumping to that- if you dip your finger in tank, can you sense any stray voltage?
- when was last time you did a water change?
- what test kit and hydrometer are you using?
- bump temp to 78 degrees
- unless you have coral, alk is acceptable

I WOULD SUGGEST TAKING A WATER SAMPLE TO A TRUSTED LFS AND HAVE THEM TEST WATER FOR YOU AND TO VERIFY YOUR READINGS AND TO COMPARE WITH YOUR READINGS

My corals are all looking really good, besides 2 of my monti’s, my hammers are all looking better than ever.

The wrasse is 3-4 inches, he was around the same size as the clown

I have coral in my tank, I don’t know how to sense stray voltage, I did a water change last week, and I always get my water tested by LFS.

If it is not something in the water it could be the wrasse keep an eye on that

I guess right after try to pick something that looks hardy at your lfs or a wysiwyg online shop

I'd personally give it at least a couple weeks to see how the other fish act. If it's disease, or parasites, they might be carrying it without your knowledge. Make sure none of the other fish die in the next couple weeks. For clownfish to die, it must be something pretty extreme.

If it were me, I'd pull all the fish out and QT them for a month. if you don't have a QT system, bare minimum would be treat them for parasites that can be treated in the tank. You said the fish didn't show any signs of external parasites (ich or velvet are fairly obvious). Do any of them show any signs of flukes or other gill or internal parasites? Stringy white poop, scratching against ro or heavy breathing? if so, that is usually really easy to treat.

Just a few ideas that may help. Good luck

Test wster weekly for at least 3 weeks and assure parameters stanle and good then fo a test fish such as firefish goby and watch behavior of wrasse
ALSO NOTE THAT YOUR FIREFISH GOBY JUMPING IS VERY TYPICAL OF THEM- Notorious jumpers
