Get your salt levels up to .3% ASAP to prevent brown blood disease (note....this is NOT 3%....it is .3%). Dont' do this slowly....get that salt in there now. You can use Solar salt from Lowes if you need to....the stuff in the blue bag not the yellow bag. Brown blood disease from nitrite poisoning will kill them quick. Get some ammonia binder in there too. Figure out why you had an ammonia spike in the first place. Inadequate filter? Too many fish? Too much food? You really need to examine the system and figure out what happened so you can prevent it from happening again.
