:no: I have lost recently 2 fish in my 70 litre tank, a molly and a tetra and both were sunk upside down. I thought this was due to the temperature being to high so I turned it down a notch, now this morning my angel is lying on the bottom of my tank breathing fast and upside down, its ot looking good, I have found there average temperature so the tanks that, but I fear its too late, any suggestions?
 
Oh yes bye the way, this fish has only been in the tank for a week, i'm not using any chemicals there are 7 other fish, 2 guppies 2 head and tails a neon 2 mollies..
 
Have you tested your water. Please post the results as it would help in sorting out what is the problem. Sorry to hear about your loss.
 
The Angel died i'm sorry to say, no I haven't tested my water, but the temperature went below 26 degrees I think that killed it :crazy: Poor thing, my damn heater, thanks anyways ;)
 
Sorry to hear about your troubles and losses :sad:. You really should check your water parameters though, because often a fish having trouble breathing could be due to high ammonia or nitrites. Is your tank new? All of these things matter - I don't know if you are cycling or not, but even if not, test your water - that's the first thing anyone will ask when you have a sick fish.
