waking up to dead fish

[BubblesandSqueak]

is that a blue linckia? it looks gray?

You have a 30 gallon tank with 10 fish?! And looks like tang, foxface, eel and other fish that require MUCH bigger tanks. I bet they are just killing themself because they dont have space and are getting territorial.
Get some Hanna checkers to check your water parameters, ATI is a waste of money and is not accurate.

i appreciate you reaching out the water parameter are up to date so far good what product do you suggest i use to test the water i use RO water seen pic for the brand of salt i use i use bleach and scrub to clean my rock been doing it for years never had a problem up untill now SO WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST I DO ????

Bleach the rocks? why? Wood in the tank...I mean I've seen it before but thats not a great idea. My Guess if this is true either eel or ammonia test is way off and they died from ammonia I mean if you bleach and clean everything thats supposed to hold bacteria to convert ammonia.

I assumed those where part of the background pic on the tank!

You can see them in the video. I think I also saw a trigger fish in there as well! These fish need 150+ gallons to be happy and they are slammed into a 30 gallon.

I didnt see video. I think like someone else said its a troll.

Bleaching your rocks destroys the biofilter on them. Sounds like you've had an ammonia spike from the tank being overstocked and the biofilter being stripped. Your fish may finally have gotten big enough to both start ripping into each other for desperate lack of space and to produce more ammonia than the biofilter can handle. You need to start rehoming them.

Again: what are the water parameters, exactly? "Good" isn't a parameter.

It appears that is a picture in the background, but the OP has never provided the full stocking list either. Either way there is a lot going on and to bleach rocks for aesthetic purposes at the detriment of the livestock and biodiversity, is a big issue.

 

[Nano_Man]

Morris 14 is correct
Over stocking
Killing good bacteria from rocks
Wood not for me unless you keep discus
I am thinking ammonia spike but the fish maybe are just killing each other
Your sponge filter pads should be gently squeezed to remove detritus in a bucket with some tank water. The only thing you throw away is your filter floss and replace the same if running carbon

 

[Dburr1014]

Wood will make the water acidic.
Take that out.

Stop bleaching the rock. Your killing bacteria that is life supporting.

Trigger fish, emperor angle, in a 30????
No, rehome them immediately! It hurts to watch the video.

yes it is what does IMO mean no theres no leaking currently from the heater or pumps everthing working fine what do you suggest I do

Imo means in my opinion. Sorry for any confusion

Looks like a “saltwater tank would be cool” guy. With no knowledge. Who uses canister filters these days anyway

Have you fixed your issues?
Have you rehomed some of the bigger fish?
Have you stopped bleaching your rock?
Sponges are very delicate and don't belong in your care unless you changed your ways of reefing. You have not been honest here.
I'm harsh, I know. But I care to much about my hobby.

Good luck contacting rusalty/aquaculture nursery farms. He purposefully ignores emails and when he does reply the customer service is lacking tremendously

Well that’s one of the most depressing tanks I’ve ever seen…. I believe that’s an undulated trigger among all the other crazy stuff…
