adding fish slowly means 1-2 every few-several weeks not over a few hours. I'm surprised they're all not sick or dying.

Ya thats a lot of fish you just added in less then a 24 hour span. You have to be very careful monitoring your tank over the next while, and have medication on standby. Also make sure the water is ariating and you may want to do waterchanges atleast once a week for the next while as your tanks is probably no longer in balance. How long has the tank been running for?

When did you tank complete cycling?
Please list
salinity
water temperature
ammonia, nitrite and nitrate readings

Tell us how you acclimatized your fish before you put them in the tank?
When did you last put fish in the tank and how many?
Forget about the photos for now because I think you are having problems already.
I would recommend that you take all but two of them back to the lfs tommorrow and would recommend that you take back the large angels and the naso for sure.
