Help with tank

[jeff6898]

All my fish are starting to die. Is there anything I can do for them? Tank has been running about 2 1/2 months

Tank doesn't appear to be cycled . Get some Prime and dose it . It will detox the ammonia and nitrites , do 50% water changes daily till the tank cycles.....IE:0 ammonia , 0 nitrites , and 20-40ppm nitrates .

Prime does nothing except remove Chlorine/Chloramine like all dechlorinators. Specifically using Prime during cycling on a daily basis can stop the cycling process cold. Nitrate/nitrite is removed via water changes and adding any dechlorinator. Read here and learn.

Adding some fast-growing live plants like hornwort, frogbit, water sprite etc. will also help bring both nitrite and ammonia down. If you don't like them you can take them out after you get the tank under control
