[Auto-Post] Weekly Question Thread! Ask /r/aquariums anything you want to know about the hobby!

So, I think I've made a mistake on my aquarium. I just set up a 180 gallon tank with a Fluval FX6. The problem is I'm just now reading about the cycling process and wrapping my head around it. I've got a few goldfish in it, and was wondering why I had 3-4 die the first few days. I feel awful, but now just want to know what I should do. Everybody is eating and acting normal (they've been in there about a week), and there haven't been any deaths. Is there something I should add, or has the worst of it now passed and we are in good shape now. I now know I shouldn't have started it this way, but with a tank that's up and running I'm totally unsure on how to best continue from here.

Finally got our water levels in check, 5 of 6 tetra died after a few hours? ick vs epistylis? tank has a lot of different species in it, but only the tetras get spots. i’ve been treating with 1/3 water change and full dose of Ich-X for going on 14 days now. How do I kill this? Several have popped up and scraping it off doesn't seem to work.. Dwarf Gourami is swimming frantically, seems like he’s going blind, and is laying at the bottom of tank. Is this the end of his days? Hydra celebrate Christmas as a family too I guess. reusing wastewater from RO system officially done with this hobby, I did all the research & did everything right. still, not even a year into it all my fish are dieing. tired of dedicating so much time towards something that still never works out.
