no real changes in water chemistry since I started adding fish 5 weeks ago. the water does look very very slight cloudy last few days

Added 2 powerheads yesterday for more water movement. koralia 425 & 600. also put a clam on a half shell for the first time for the puffer and he loved it.





Got up this morning and puffer on its last breath at bottom and all others in bad shape breathing very heavy at bottom of tank barely moving. they all look in perfect health otherwise.



Any ideas on what to look at would be greatly appreciated. looks like im gonna lose all my fish when all looks good? my wife has wanted saltwater fish for 20 yrs now and now she got em...
