Okay, here's the lowdown:
I have a Jewel Rekord 96 which has been cycled for about 6 weeks (spent a lot of time researching at this site whilst it was cycling - fishless)
We have added all the fish gradually since it was cycled and do a 15-20% water change twice a week. The fish get fed once a day.
My water parameters are all fine, the temperature is 26 celcius and there is fine, rounded gravel on the bottom with mopani and natural plants and rocks.

When I went to check on the fish (about an hour ago) I found one of my Schwarzi's swimming on its side and thrashing around. Then it nose-dived to the bottom and died :-(

We are currently treating the tank with Myaxzin as our other Cory has fungus. We did a water change immediately and are planning on doing small water changes daily until the fungus has cleared.

What could have caused the death of the Cory? I hope I have given you enough information but feel free to ask for more!
