Ok my Fancy guppies deaths just keeps going and going. It never stops until a few days ago *Tuesday* I didn't see any bodies in my tank or stuck to the filter.
At that time, I didn't realize that the last death that happen, I had to turn off the filter just to get the body unstuck and never turned it back on. So Yesterday *Sunday* I was doing PWCs' and realize that the filter was not on. After I had done my bi-weekly PWC I turned it back on and this afternoon *Monday* I found another fresh body stuck to the filter.
Somethings not right here....
The death toll stops when my filter is off, but when on, I get the usual
everyother day death.
My tank is a 44 gallon pentagon.
Water params look fine. *As in 0 AMMO 0 Nitrite 5 Nitrate Ph 7.8*
*BTW Liquid test kit*
The filter is a magnum 350 *Correction on the filter its a H.O.T Magnum.* Canister HOB
Is the water current too much for my guppies, that their little hearts get stressed and then they die from the result of that?
Is something wrong with the media? * AC with nylon sleeve *
I can't seem to find the source of the problem. I do have a 10 gallon with 4 Tiger barbs 2 black skirts 1 emerald cory cat, and They've been fine for several months.
So I ruled out the water source of being the problem.
