Fish keep dying every two days. Thought tanks was cycled.

How often are you changing the water of your second tank? I think it might be a water change or acclimation issue.
There's nothing that i've read so far that screams out at me. I know that some young fish can be very difficult to keep, but i have no clue about baby flowerhorns, are they very hardy when young??
Are they actually getting comfy enough in their surroundings to eat or do they die before they even get round to eating? If they are feeding, what are you giving them? Is the batch of food fresh, out of date, maybe off??

Food varies betwen cichlid pellets, shrimp brine flakes, and blood worm flakes. I feed my other fish in the other tank the same food and they thrive. It looks like the first day they do some eating but the second day they start hiding and I don't think they eat. And then they die.
So basically you're reading all 0 across the board??? That sounds to me like an un-cycled tank especially if you dont have any live plants...
Also, you mentioned washing all your stuff before placing it in the tank, did you also wash all your filter media before putting it in as well???
