My new tank purchased at the end of October. Filtered by 2 Aqueon Quiet Flow 55/75.

autopsy Sadly, one of my platties died today. So I took that opportunity to perform an autopsy :) She was indeed pregnant! Lots of fry in there, none of them survived though :/ So I started questioning myself... is it possible for the fry to die in the mother? and her never give birth...

Don`t think it`s overfeeding. I even skipped days here and there just to see if it would help. There are 2 other full grown platties in there which are looking good, no bloating. That`s why I was thinking constipation...
