Newbie Mistakes and Sick Rabbitfish?

Thank you for your response. Unfortunately, the rabbitfish was dead the next morning. I did get a test kit and take a water sample into LFS and the water checks out with Ammonia 0, Nitrite 0.05 with home test (LFS showed 0), Nitrate 50, <... this is high> pH 8.4, temp 77, and SG 1.021 , which LFS says shouldn’t have caused the death. LFS has given us a credit for the cost of the fish, but I’m nervous about adding another fish right now, so it’s just sitting on a gift card, and I’m just happy that my little clowns, snails and crabs are doing OK.
