Hello

Hi

I'm new on this site and would like some advice! I have a tropical fish tank that I have had for two years. About 3 weeks ago I brought 3 Plattys from a fish supplier I do not usually use, 2 died in the first couple of days, I put this down to stress. The next day my other fish started dying, since then at least 1 fish dies every day. I am at a loss to what is causing this. Does anyone know of a disease or infection that can cause fish to die with no symptons. I have lost catfish, fighter fish, all types of tetra, they all look fine when I go to bed and then in the morning another is dead. It's really odd I've never seen anything like it before. I have had my water checked and it is normal.

Please help!!

Hello and welcome to the forum.

Sorry to hear about your problems. It is usually a good idea to quarantine new fish for 2 to 4 weeks before adding them to your tank (especially if it is a store you haven't bought from before or one you just don't trust) just incase they are carrying a disease. I'm not very familiar with the different diseases. Try posting in the "Emergencies" section. They will maybe be able to help you more there. Good luck.

Welcome to the forum!!! How old is your tank?

You should go back to your LFS and ask for a refund. Most fish shops will give you atleast store credit. Also take a sample of your tank water along so they can check and make sure that the cause is not poor water quality.
