I'm really sorry to hear that.
Do you think something got into your system, a cleaning product, etc? I think your doing everything right, maybe try running some carbon to try and catch whatever is in the system.

I dunno what it is. I tried the carbon and then thought which do i do.If i run the carbon than that takes out the meds and if i don't maybe it isn't catching what may be in there.Although no cleaning products or anything has been near it but who knows...
I don't get it. I am starting to think that maybe i should put the regal back in the main tank and feed him lots with some good food and vitamins and run my uv sterilizer and maybe he can kick it. It only seems to be the angels that are breathing super hard. So i don't know what to do.

ich
did you say copper? isn't it a reef? if you pull the fish out to copper them it usually takes 4 days I know believe me you have to let them go for a week in quarintine in a reef it's much more difficult but I've only experienced the problem in my fowler with the reef garlic plus but with the fowler I recomend ionized copper that kills the ich in 3 days I leave it in for up to 2 weeks just to make sure, reason why the fish are breathing so hard is because the ich gets into the fishes gills and in 4-5 days can suffocate the fish. The ionized copper works wonders the recent strain of ich is terrible and very hardy however if you don't have any corals or can catch the fish put them in quarantine use full recomended dose 1st day half 2nd and 1/3 the 3rd day let it sit to make sure also it will not completly kill the lr mine grew back coraline after 1 month try a uv sterilizer aswell hope this was helpfull and sorry to hear about your fish I know how it feels to lose all your stock in 1 week.

Yike [ sorry ]
Dam-Dam if it doesn't rain it pours...if you have a quarintine tank, I would give them a freshwater dip then into the quarintine tank, then do the copper bit.
 I would also raise your main tank temp to 82...run at this temp for a week. I have had great results, learned this from a fellow reefer of over 20 years reefing
