So last weekend I bought 4 baby serpae tetras from fish n chirps.. they did well.. so on Tuesday I bought 5 more and 5 swartz cories.
First night one tetra died.. figured it was just one of those things.
Three days later I decided to get the german blue rams I saw the previous Tues.
On my way out.. saw one of my new cories struggling. I bagged him, brought him back to the store and got a replacement (I felt really bad). Bought two rams, one replacement tetra and replacement cory.
That night... one tetra died, and my ram died. Those deaths I explained off...
Last night... another cory died and MY ANGEL FISH. The one Ive had for several months now (at least 5 months) out of no where died. I will admit he has been acting strange the last month. His color has paled on and off... not as active etc. But he hasn't acted THAT strange.. strange enough to die
Now one of my cories is acting like a helicopter that has damanged wings/propellors.
What should I do?
Tanks specs-
75gal tank with ehiem canister filter.
I did a water change about a week ago
they tested my ammonia at the fish store and it was normal as well as pH
The tank has- hatchets, odessa barbs, RTB shark, school of serpea tetras, (dying) cories, one angel fish, two golden barbs and one german blue ram.
Should I QT ALL of my corys and take them back? Is there something I can treat the whole tank with to make sure no more fish die?
Thanks for any help.

Okay my water reads-
ammonia- 0
Nitrite- is somewhere between .3-.8 (im thinking .5 or so)
My KH is 7
GH is 9
One of my older serpae tetras died.
Im going to do a massive water change.
I couldn't find the card to test my pH so I have to go with what the fishstore said "a little hard"
