Matt were the fish gasping at the top? If so it is a lack of oxygen.
Once you check to see that the tank has not cycled, you can start again.
This time;
Wait for one month until you add another fish to your tank.
Add only add one fish per month to your tank as adding too many at the same time affects the balance in a small tank like yours.
It is a good idea to ask here about fish suitable to your tank or go to www.wetwebmedia.com
Never add a tang to 25 gallon tank. If the LFS that sold you the tang knew it was going in a 25 gallon change LFS.
I don't mean to lecture. I know the loss is tough on you.

Thank you everyone for your help and suggestions. I found out that the PH was extremely low. Everything else was in check. Ive done a 50% water change and everything seems inline at this point. Once again. thanks to everyone..


PS.. does anyone have any fish that would be suitable for a 25 gallon tank that they want to get rid of at a reasonable price? I have another 25 gallon thats been cycling for a while now.

Matt

I totally agree with this. Your low ph didnt kill all those fish iin 6 hours. Dont add any thing else for a month then try again.
