Hi Marco, not sure what meds you used but it may have upset your biological filtration. Nitrite poisoning/ammonia??

Hi Marco, I did this shortcut to your other post so you don't have to repeat how this started.

Are these new fish? did you get them recently or have you had them for a while? have you contacted the seller? Have you added anything new to the tank?

What are you readings, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate? How much salt do you have in there?

Marco, what filter are you using? Do you have a pre filter? Did you clean it recently in chlorinated water? We need more details.
