If i don't find an answer soon i might wake up to another dead ray in 2 days!
 
thats a bad sign..most likely its bacteria infection, meaning your tank water screwed up, only thing is to do large water changes and install uv filter to kill all the bacteria and good luck to you bro

bump up ur water changes, and check for disolved metals in your water

bump them up to tank flush level.... metals could be problem but i would go more on the bacteria side..

bacteria is prob the case.... lots of large 50% water changes in a row... and do 50% once a day.... add salt 3# per 100 gallons and go from there...
