Water Problems

By the way ,turn off your U-V if you half to add benifical bacteria

Beneficial bacteria, as a general rule are "not "planktonic, they are sessile, meaning they live attached (as a biofilm) to objects like media, sides of tanks, rocks etc etc.
A UV sterilizer only kills that, which flows thru it.
Of course by changing things the OP may have loosened biofilm, but this is not the norm for beneficial bacteria.

I would have thought the same thing but it started before I put those fish in. I think it’s fine now . A barb went missing.
