Don't feed your fish until they start to come down. To help them down, make sure pH is around 6.8 to 7.2 so that you are letting the bacteria do their work and you are not getting nutrient lock-out from your plants. Watch your temperature 'fluctuations', don't let an algae build-up occur. Salt your tank to 3ppt to protect the fish from bio-shock and then just wait! Be patient until the system cycles again and settles down. There must always be a balance, put something in=take something out, same with your system.
