My Fish Died?

[giant19000]

I moved them all to my new house today all of them in bags my needle nose butis butis, peacock eel and cichlid all died the butis butis was dead and my needle nose and cichlid were swimming around perfectly then bam died 20 mins later??? Could it be stress?

Same tank same sand filter etc

Oooh I took like 40% of my water thatwas in my tank and added the rest reg water with seasalt to get rid of any disease

To what salinity did you make your water rise? Did you check first if your fish tolerate salt? What disease did they have?

Did you dechlorinate the new water? How long did the move take? Did their water temperature fluctuate during the move?

No I always add sea salt when I move them or do a water change maybe like a table spoon? The trip took 1 1/2 hrs ?? Maybe the temp???

I checked and apparently most of those fish are fine with salt. How were the fish packed? How did you acclimatise them to the new water? What were the old tank water and new tap water parameters after dechlorination?

How big is the tank and what size are the fish? A move could have triggered death caused by longer term problems, so lets rule that out.

7.5 ? And like 6. Something I took them to my nearest lfs and they did all the packing for free. I wait 10minutes before putting them in the water while floating,

Do you mean the old tank water pH was 7.5 and the new tap water pH was 6.0? That could have caused it. Even with the salt and large amount of old water, the change in pH would have been over 10 fold, I expect. And the change in KH and GH would have been high as well.
