We set up our 29gal tank in September 2012. Everything was going well until the last few months. We seem to lose a fish every other week. We only have 10 fish in the tank. We have 2 swordtails, 2 mollies, 2 platy's, 2 guppies and 2 corydora catfish. The catfish and the swordtails are still from September. The symptom is that their stomachs descend and they eventually die after a few days. We replace what dies but we seem to keep loosing fish. We had a few pink danios but when they died we did not replace them. The water tests are:
Ammonia 0 - .25
Nitrites 0
Nitrates 30 - 40
PH 8.2
Water temp 78
PWC weekly about 25%
We have hard water as tested by the lfs, I do not have a hardness test or know the numbers.
Any help would be very much appreciated
