Hello,
I have had this tank set up and running for about six months now. everything is flourishing. I am more than happy with the way it looks. Plants are healthy and the water is crystal clear. So here is my question. About once a month i am noticing that one of my fish die off. I am not sure what is causing this. My ph is 7.2. ammonia 0 nitrite 0 and nitrates almost zero. Not using any liquid ferts. Just flourite and gravel for substrate. I use Excel once a week.
The fish don't seem to act any different and willingly take food. no bloating or discoloration to speak of. Over night one at a time they kick the bucket. Never all at once.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
