Her fish were dropping like flys... I don't know if she will be back on tonight. Best course of action we came up with was to fully clean the tank, it was the one that had the cloudy issue from the start.

I believe she did a 50% mix, new conditioned water and 50% water from another tank.

Your welcome, glad to hear that they are doing better!

I filled it with water from a larger tank. I may have only been doing this for two years but I know I need to let a tank cycle first. It was an emergency and I needed to fix the prob asap so I emptied the tank 100% and cleaned it, put in gravel from the other tank and water from the other tank and everything seems to be doing well.
