i ain't had them long enough to overfeed them so can only assume it was something prior to me getting them.

So what are your water readings? First logical step.

ammonia 0ppm and nitrite 0ppm

PH levels? Temperature? nothing out of the ordinary with those? How long had you had them?

had them about a week

PH 7
temp 26c

did you do anything to the tank or add anything to the water prior to this happening? With such a quick death it sounds like they've reacted to something in the water.
