we recently switched our saltwater fish from a 46 gallon bowfront to a 55 gallon to provide them with more room to swim around. We used the exact same water that was in their tank to fill up the 55 until we ran out. They were all swimming around happily. we added 2 smaller pieces of live rock, an additional bag of sand and filled the water up, making sure the salinity was perfect and that the water was dechlorinated. Then they started breathing with thier mouthes open and all went downhill from there. over half of our fish died, including a green bird wrasse, a dusky wrasse, and a blue tang. However, our dragon wrasse survived, as well as our eel, starfish, and our damsel. What happened? Please help me, i don't wan the rest of them to die too!

thank you, Kristi
