arowana not eating!!!

[ringojcp]

So here is my problem. My ammonia and no2 no3 is nearly 0......i don't have a ph test so i cant answer that one. but here goes....

Just last week I added some fish from pet smart to my aro tank. Well, needles to say i yanked them out 30 minutes later before they become gar dinner. Over night, my aro developed cloudy eye and stopped eating and so did the gar and dempsey. I raised tank temps up to 82 and added salt, melafix, and pime fix....the cloudy eye and body slime is gone, but now the gar has ick......i did a water change added salt again and did the daily dose of mela and pima........temp is at about 84
my fish hasn't eaten in four days and it is starting to worry me....i decided to add carbon in the tank to absorb the mela and pima and am thinking about a 25% water change
my aro is skinny, my gar is full of ick and freaking out an my jack attempts to eat only to spit it out and not being able to get anything
WHAT SHOULD I DO??? I'm stumped... all of this after done treating my jardini
sigh

bro.... that is a lot of chemicals..... just wait it out...... as for my self, i use COPPERSAFE, it treats the water for 30days and its a 1time shot... no need to due anything else just wait until it clears... and it has worked for me... i guarantee it will work.... but in your case you put so much chemicals, if you use this you might overdose!!! so if you plan to... do a 75% water change and let your water cycle for a while 5-6 hours maybe, and then add coppersafe.... READ DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY... its a cap ful for each 4gal.... so how ever much gallons you have keep it under 8gal example ( 60gal - put enough to fit 52gal ) of coppersafe very srong chemical i guarantee it will work!!! just dont overdose!!!

mela and pima fix goes together................do you think salt is an overload? guess ill absorb it with the carbon and do a 25% change........should i use abosrb all of the pima and mela and just use salt?

you did enough yes pima and mela goes together only if it has those symptoms, otherwise you did to much,,, so just be patient and wait.... best of luck bradda....
