Such quick action makes me a bit suspicious of what is in the Ephiphytes
Delight. I found long ago that BGA was very sensitive to copper. Perhaps
you managed to dose your tank with lethal levels of copper or some other
toxic metal? If so then be cautious. Too much copper will kill the fish
as well as the bga. In a planted tank it may also kill the plants.
