I went back and looked at my records and salinity was 1.025. Yes, I have done a water change, expected to see the values off the chart with it dying in the tank but it didn't. I did about 25 gallon change twice since this event. As for the alkalinity; I will test that tonight after the fact I...

OK, Damsels are out; put them in a buddies tank of mine 40 min away. LFS said to add them so just doing what i'm told. Should have clarified that I did start adding shrimp since day one, even prior to adding the live rock. Continued throughout. As for the ammonia, still hasn't moved off of zero.
