Gerber77 Fingerling Posts: 44 Votes: 0 Registered: 02-Feb-2005	I changed my 29 gallon saltwater tank int freshwater about two weeks ago. I cleaned the tank well and added my water. My ph was 7.4 and everything looked good. I added my blue gourami and two cories and the next morning I woke up and they died. what is the problem?
