You and I both know that the chances are very likely that the powerheads caused the issue... I had the exact same symptoms in exactly the same duration of time after adding the exact same brand and model of powerheads.
I ended up losing my whole stock after this episode brought on a major case of velvet from the stress caused. There was no evidence of any ich or velvet outbreak the day before. It would be impossible for it to take out 15 fish with all the same symptoms in a night.
Wash those powerheads in vinegar and water for many hours before using them again. If you notice any onset of ich due to the stress caused from this episode I would quarantine right away... Dont wait and try try to ride out like I did.
