Hi all, long time since I've posted. I was in the middle of moving and had drained their large tank and had them in a temporary one. Moved the tank, poured the sand back in and refilled it. Let it sit a couple days to allow the chlorine to fully evaporate. Don't have any water parameters as it honestly should be all 0s at this point...
I transferred them this morning and out of 5, 1 is dead, and the 4 others do not look good at all. Its like the sand has STUCK to their skin and gills. This is the same sand they were in before, it settled well, etc. I have them all in containers with fresh bottled water and did my best to wipe the sand off but now their skin is peeling with it....
Very confused :/

They're all gone - they were literally covered in sand when I got home from work several hours after transferring them - it was very odd and I've never seen it or had it happen before...and it is the same sand that was in their tank before and never caused a problem. I've done their water this way before and its never been an issue - but I will test it tomorrow just to be sure it wasn't that...
