When your angels swam did you ever see them kinda 'twitch' every once in a while, typically head shift left to right or vice versa real quickly for a second or two and then all was good. If so this could be a sign of Flukes. Some have found freshwater dips to help kill some of the flukes, but it is a desease being seen more and more just recently, so from what I know there is currently no 'for sure' cure. The one mentioned in a earlier response in this treat is also said to work. In most cases however the gill areas would be red or inflamed and the death tends to occur quickly. As for cyanide from what I have gathered the death just occurs suddenly with no apparent symptoms. With the bruising and lesions I would think parasites were burying either into the skin or trying to get out of the skin of the fish.
