By the way I read this , you added 7 fish , all at once, without cycling the tank, and now i am guessing you nitrates are sky high, which will most probably kill your fish.
You will have to start over, this time, read up first before you start, especially about the nitrogen cycle and cycling a tank. Then go slow and don't be in a rush to add fish.
A good book to learn about a salt water tank is
The Reef Aquarium - 3 Volume Set by C. Delbeek & J. Sprung
