when was the last water change? could be ammonia or a pH issue...is your tap water much different ph than you tank? with ammonia in the tank, you need daily water changes with some conditioner to detox the ammonia/nitrites...prime, amquel+ or even ammo lock at this point would work well...

what stuff did you end up getting?
also test your ph in your tap water with the ph in your tank and compare them

im glad its worked for you but something is going on now...have you compared your ph 's?
I know my african tank cannot handle big water changes as my ph in my tank is much higher than my tap ph ..and when larger changes are done, they have a huge ph shock which can kill them....
