Default I forgot the dechlorinator!! Help!

Oh god. - I changed the water and forgot the dechlorinator like 2
hours ago. There all shocky and free floating but still breathing.
Is there anything I can do? (I added prime dechlorinator as soon as i
realized)

I think all you can do now is pray. Anyone else have any ideas?

Add the dechlor in now - might want to add a double dose. If you
have an airstone or a filter put it on full blast!

polyaqua only
let the tank temp drop a bit
make sure there is hellatious aeration in there.
dont feed
right now it is all about the gills and the fish getting enough oxygen
dont even put salt in and certainly nothing else esp. not melucca stuff.
