My Tiger barbs and gouramis are acting wierd and two tiger barbs just flipped over and died. I don't know what the problem is as my water parameters are fine (Amm. 0, Nitrites 0, Nitrates 0, 7.4 pH, 78 degrees F). They're in a 30g long that's been completely cycled. I didn't add fish until yesterday (Added 8 tiger barbs, 1 Rubberlip pleco, 2 blue gouramis). My filtration is enough at 250gph. After I acclimated them [by floating the bag and adding a little bit of my water] , I put a small bit of bloodworms in to feed them. This morning, I went down and checked on them, and two of the tiger barbs had just strayed off by themselves and started swimming upside down and really twitching and just died. My male gourami has unfortunetly started twitching the same way and I'm worried about him. I added aquarium salt when I was changing the water (dissolved). My lighting is rated at 10,000k is that a problem?
