Need help newly moved 150 gallon tank

[LSBEES]

Hi, I bought a 150 gallon established tank on Sunday, it took about 5 hours to make the move so I know the fish were stressed. Checking the ammonia levels we are near .25 ppm and we are preparing for a 30 gallon water change at the moment. The trigger fish is swimming constantly back and forth towards the current of the power head and we are uncertain if the snowflake is eating, if he did it was a piece of krill that fell into the rock work. He was eating whole shrimp and silver sides before the move and hasn't taken a silver side.

The inhabitants are - Sailfin Tang, Yellow Tang, Blue Tang, Bursa Trigger, Christmas Wrasse? Diamond Goby, Blue Damsel, Snowflake Eel, large hermit crab, large snail, two unknown small anemones.

Simple sump, protein skimmer and a canister filter with UV (unknown age on bulb).

Any suggestions or comments are welcomed.

Thank you

James

Dose Prime or Amquel ASAP to neutralize any ammonia.

Don't worry so much about feeding them for right now. Fish can go days without eating.

Maybe run the lights dimmer or off for a couple days. That may help calm your fish. Ammonia neutralizer and/or stress coat could help too.

Definitely get that ammonia out of there ASAP. Fish can go 2 weeks without starving. Ammonia is a far more dangerous thing. As soon as you are set up and able, some 20% water changes will help keep that under control.
