    The angel is swimming around, sometimes kind of "drunk" like I guess is the best way to describe it. It hasn't been laying on its side any more from what I have seen though.

    Also, the 15 mins is up for the Ammonia test. The reading is more towards 0.25 ppm now. Just 2 nights ago, it was 0. I must have started a mini cycle. I have added Prime and I'm getting ready to change out 5 gallons with fresh saltwater.

    You may have stirred up a little junk. Should go back to 0 with a water change. Good luck!

    I wouldn't think that number is high enough to kill a fish though - might have been something else that took down the wrasse. Sorry for your loss :(

    I dunno!! It's weird sometimes. I've had deaths like that before - they just don't make any sense. :-/

    I hope the angel pulls through.

    Im thinking a combo of the stress from the re-scape, and the ammo that came from stuff inevitably being kicked up. None of its your fault smitty!

    Thanks man, now the Angel is just kind of propped up against the side of the glass on the bottom of the tank. Not doing much of anything except breathing now.

    Aww man im sorry. Poor fish, i hope he makes it!! I would try and minimize the flow and turn off powerheads and such because it looks like he is having trouble swimming.. Good luck!
