Hi everyone

I have recently lost 2 danios in a weeks time. I had 6 of them in a 40 gal tank. The tank isn't completely cycled, but w/c are done often, and water perameters are always good. Been up and running since late May early June.

The thing is, these 2 fish were wasting away to nothing it seemed, while the other 4 thrived. I feed once a day and feed hikari micro pellets for tropical fish. The fish that were lost wasted away and then just lost all activity. They actually looked like they got "curvy", or a hump back, and didn't swim well.

I've been researching alot and all the pics I've come across, and all I've read has me thinking it may have been nutritional. Anyone have experience with the Hiakri Micro Pellets? Should I be feeding different types of food and different times of the day? Looking for some sort of guidance here, Thanks.
