Hi,
My friend just called me and said that he added a few starfish to his tank tonight. They were doing fine at first, he left to go get some dinner and when he came back they were laying at the bottom of his tank starting to curl. He took them out, washed them off, and has them in a tuperware bowl right now.
He said that everything was fine until he did his first water change of 25%, then his fish started dieing. Said all his levels are where they should be. When he did his water change though he said he added AmQuel plus for ammonia. I told him that might be what it is. Told him the only way to really get rid of ammonia is to do waterchanges. Anyone else have any ideas? Thanks.

ps they are chocolate chip starfish
