ah sorry to hear man. I wish i catch this thread earlier so i can offer you some bin and ready to go mixed water.

I hate putting medicine in the display tank, if your skimmer still go wild, i think the chemical that is killing your fish still in there. I would let it continue skimming the tank and keep making fresh water and do w/c and run/change carbon

this is awfull. I to never treat in the display tank, it's too risky as anything can die. I never had such mess using Paraguard and I am treating 3 fish right now in a 20 gallons quarantine tank with liverock with some coral (I could not remove them) that are attached to the liverock and after a week they seem to be holding. One birdnest and some clove polyps. There is one little batch of green star polyp that is closed but look alive otherwise. I would never use it in my display tank though.

I don,t suppose they put the ingredients on the bottle?

Sorry to hear. I hope you get things figured out.

IMO I don't think it's the Herbtana causing the problems. I have used it full strength in my display tank with no ill effects to the fish or corals. I also use it with the Microbe-Lift Artemiss product when introducing new fish into my display tank as a pre-treatment as per the instructions on the bottle. Maybe check to ensure you dosed the proper amount.

Sorry I can't offer any more assistance. Good luck.
