Quick update, the one ender than was hanging on the bottom ate it last night, but the rest seem to be back to themselves, I think the decline might be over, though it'll be a long road back up hill.
Either way, we'll see tomorrow... :/

Hey guys, so the day after adding CO2 everything seemed much better, no new dead fish, and none since. The tank on the whole is looking better, algae seems to be in remission to some extent, and all seems pretty well... a lot of fish died over the days, but a lot survived as well...
Casualties:
4 Neon Tetras
2 Female Guppies
1 Male Guppy
6 Female Endlers
4 Ghost Shrimp
Remaining:
4 Neon Tetras (one might be another kind of tetra, it's got the same markings, but is over all lighter than the other three)
2 Female Endlers
4 Male Endler/Guppy hybrids
1 Male Endler
4 Cherry Barbs
6 Cory Cats
3 Khuli Loaches
2 Dwarf Puffers
Not sure:
3-6 Endler or Guppy fry
1 Slightly more mature babeh.
8-12 Red Cherry Shrimp - I've seen them here and there since everything was, only ever found one body, and they are hard to see, it was a week after adding them before I saw any of them again so, I'm not too worried... the other tank has many many more so either way.
Could have been worse, disappointed in the guppies dying though as they were the last my first 4 fish; there were another male and female which jumped... they were so pretty!

Still no deaths, and algae is definitely dying, I think the lack of dead fish is probably just because all the ones that were going to die, were already dead or dying, and only the rest were left.
