Tank is crashing

I'm not sure what to think of it.

My Mimic Tang died last night. I was unsure what happened to her, but didn't see this coming. I woke this morning to find my Blue Tang lying sideways, clinging to life. My Dogface Puffer is QTed now but barely hanging on. My cleaner shrimp is dead, but I see snails still moving about. I have 2 gobies still in the tank that have been difficult to catch, but will try to QT as well.

My wife got off work early today and took a water sample to the trusted LFS for a full diagnostic - the levels turned out fine ( I don't know the specifics b/c I wasn't there though).

It's a FOWLR setup mostly, but I have added a few 'shrooms. I have Christmas Tree Worms and a Hawaiian Feather Duster - none have yet to show any ill effects.

Any ideas on a culprit? It's tough to go through something like this when you don't know what's going on or how to better help your tank.
