You either bought the wrong wrench or are using the wrong term. You need a 15mm open end wrench for the adjustable cup (left/non-drive side) or an adjustable (Crescent) wrench but even tongue and groove pliers can do the job.
The fixed cup should *only* be removed if you determine that the BB needs to be replaced due to wear. The fixed cup is removed clockwise and I already specified a Google search that will tell you how. You can also just take in to a bike shop or co-op and have them remove it (take in frame only)
