My fish died little over two weeks ago. I did a slight water change, and left the water as it was in the tank. I just realized that the filter is not connected properly. The part with the carbon and bio balls did not have any water passing through them since i changed the water. I know this has killed all the beneficial bacteria contained in them.
What do i do now? do i connect it and run it for a few more days, or is it safe for me to add some fish? I was planning on getting fish tomorrow, but now i'm not so sure.

I have a 10gal tank with 2 Mollies. I know Planaria come from a dirty tank with too much food at the bottom but this doesn't seem to be the case here. I have 2 ghost shrimp that feast at the bottom, also. My 29 gal tank never gets Planaria. I just think the Planaria are disgusting and I heard that guppies will eat them. Is this true?

Yeah there all dying some are changing colors, some have white puffy eyes, others look desaturated in color, some are just staying still, but more fish are turning upside down, I did see a lot of bubbles at the to if that means anything, all fish looked like they were gasping for air, some were rushing towards the top after the water change.
