Why are you adding the pH up? It has some added chemicals in it that can mess up your pH that can cause some swings in pH that could kill your fish. It also has other chemicals in it that could be plain old toxic to the fish themselves.

I added it because my ph was low around 6.6 as a community tank I wanted it at 7.0 I checked after using it and it's at 7.1 ish

By adding some crushed coral in very tiny amounts you could have done the same thing without all the chemicals

Edit: Also want to add that I think that pH is just fine for most community fish

I know that's a pretty huge difference to make right away but nobody Else is affected just pinky

I tried shells didn't have corals read it would work but never did so I opted for other means

Stop playing with the pH at all. Let it stabilize and your fish will hopefully follow.
