Why is the fish in the box? I don't know what is wrong but I think the fish has a better chance in the tank.
And if you can, perform a water change. If the ammonia is that high lowering it is a good idea.
Did that fish eat a guppy recently? It doesn't need any food at the moment. Take the guppies out.

BUMP

How long have you had your tank? Sounds like it is not fully cycled? How did you acclimate the fish? Did he just come home from the LFS? Your saltwater needs to be at 1.024 to 1.025 but we need to know if you just introduced him to your tank.

He was in there for a month he didn’t make it
Sorry for your loss. Not sure what led to it but suggestions are to check out Bulk Reef Supply video's on Youtube on all things reefing. Also, the sticky thread in the forums here and articles are a great resource.
