One of my platies died and I have no idea why. I'm hoping someone here may have some ideas.
It's a 20gal community tank with an AquaClear 150, plastic plants. Established in March/04. Ammonia 0, Nitrite 0, Nitrate 10-20ppm. Temp 78F. Never any problems with water conditions coming out of my tap (ie hardness, etc). PH is 7.2. So nothing has changed, water seems good, all the other fish seem fine, but one dies for seemingly no reason. I've had the platy for several months and I've had no problems with the tank at all for months. It's been quite trouble free. Last water change was about a week and a half ago. I try to do them every week; sometimes it ends up a week and a half. Anyone have any suggestions?
