That's way too many creatures. 3 angels!!!?! You should only have one per smaller tank.... also how old is the tank and how fast did you add everything? You probably shocked the system. 0 nitrates tells me your tank is not cycled

I understand why the angels died, but not the clown. 24 gal is totally fine for clownfish, heck I have a clown in a 5 gal. Snap a pic of your live rock. Also what's filtration? Protein skimming or standard?
