sharuq1 Sorry to hear about the problems your having. I wish I was closer to help but will chip in my 2 cents worth.

To me it sounds like with your ammonia high you are going through a cycle. This could have been brought on by the 100% water change. My suggestion would be use only R/O water prepared hrs in advance with exact tank temp and salinity. Change out a max of 2 gallons per day at one time or 2 x 1.5g per day. Feed your fish sparingly (maybe every 2 days) or feed then do water change and get out any extra food.
Good luck.
Kevin

Default dying

One thing I dont think doing a 100% water change was good idea.I think the ammonia is from everything dying in your tank.I would move anything that is 100% alive to somebodys good tank or maybe your local pet store will hold it.I wish you luck but it doesnt sound good.I think in the morning things are not going to be good.Taking your live rock out and cooking it was like taking out was like taking everything that helps stabalize your tank.Also zoos are one of the most deadly things to die in your tank.as it will kill everything alive including your fish.
