Save my corals and fishes..

[helpthycorals]

To cut the story short, I need help to save some corals and fishes.
I have corals and some fishes in pails of water now.
The corals are blowing bubbles and I think its a sign of stress
and the fishes are coming up to the surface for air..
There is air pump in the pails..
wat else can i do to keep them alive??

the fishes and coral are "rescued" frm the big tank and housed temporarily in the pails till the owner is back. Therefore the water shd be around room temperature..

the water should be about 78 f

when will the owner be back. where do you live (what city state). i might be able to get my hands on a 24 gal nano cube we can put the coral and fish in untill the owner gets back.

Is there a local fish store nearby that you can hire to help with the tank?

I'd ask why are they not in the aquarium rather then have them in buckets ? As for cooling freeze water in some plastic soda bottle and float them.. that way you want have the melting ice messing with the salinity in a small bucket.
