need help fast

the fish were rescued from a tank that had no flow and the water wasnt moving at all with no air or anything being introduced into the system. they went to my friends fish shop where mike aka poseidon on here runs the shop and he had them for a week to make sure they were ok, so they have been in a good system, brought them home and been keeping a close eye on the tank because i dont want anything happening and well tonight it did. I dont like the fact that they had to go into a uncycled tank but we had no choice.

amonia nitrate and nitrite are all at zero ive been on the phone with everyone i know and everyone says that in the tank they were in that they think the top of the water wasnt rolling over enough to properly oxygenate the tank, right now i have the air hose attached to the powerhead and 2 air pumps pumping air into the system
 
i moved them to my 150 system that i just started to cycle this week that still hasnt had any of the numbers go up yet figure that the water quality is better than the tank that they were in


what might work best is placing them in another tank if you can.
 
Sorry to hear that, hope the others pull through.
 
Try using poly filters from poly bio marine they should clean up the water quickly and help with the ammonia spike you willl soon have.
 
Ph way too low, much past 7.6 marine fish can not tolerate for any length of time. They can tolerate lower salinity low as 12 but not low PH.
