Yes i have been topping it off everyday with reverse osmosis water. Unfortantly If it does not start doing better in a couple days, I think i might need to turn this into a predator tank

No need to turn it into a predator tank.

Just SLOW DOWN, we told you from the beginning you were moving to quick and now you are starting to see the effects. Let the tank cycle, buy some test kits for Ammonia, Nitrite, and Nitrate, and start testing.

Have to take it slow man , like I said every single tank has a cycle with a spike and some algae. Just sit back and enjoy the ride in a few months the tank will have a sweet mini reef system going!

I kinda want to turn it into a mantis shrimp tank. Would i still have to wait for my tank to cycle becasue i already have one fish, so when i put the mantis shrimp in he could just eat the blenny.
