if you had a un-cycled filter and added all those fish it was more then likely an ammonia spike. Sometimes you can see the fish gills are bright red instead of reddish-pink from irritation. you will need to change 20-40% of the water daily until it calms down. You should use dechlorinated water or let the new water sit 24hr before putting it in the tank if you have a filter.
