Dying Neons

I have lost 3 out of 4 in 24 hours. I cannot explain it and don't see any reason at all. Did a PWC on Sat. All of my water values are where there should be: ammonia - 0, nitrite - 0 and nitrate - 0. Thoughts anyone?

How long have you had the tank and is it cycled?

Also, how long have you had the tetras? It could be bad stock from the store.

Ph? Cycled? Any fish that would eat it in the tank?? I would do another PWC just in case can't hurt. Did you test right??(sorry just trying to figure problem) Hmm

Two out of the 3 were in the tank less than 1 week. I've had the tank (38-gal) 7 weeks and it is cycled. I have 4 phantoms and 2 platy's that are not having issues whatsoever. I am following the instructions for testing using API to the letter.

The store most likely had a bad stock. My lfs has had horrible angel stock lately some of them don't even last 24 hrs.
