Hi everyone,
Looking for a little advice re: some mysterious fish deaths I have been having recently. I have had a 54 gallon aquarium up and running for awhile now after upgrading from my 30 gallon. Last week I added 6 blueberry tetra to my community of 3 black skirt tetra, 9 Sterbai cory dora, and 6 zebra danios. Three days later the blueberry starting dying off one by one. They would be acting normally and then within a few hours I would find one dead on the sand. No signs of trauma. I tested my water at home and also brought it my aquarium store to be tested- no problems, zero ammonia, pH 6.8. I have also now lost 2 of my mature danios I have had for 6 months. Nothing has changed in my tank and the location is the same. Always do a 30% water change weekly and use water conditioner. Temperature is stable at 80F. Does anyone have any insight into these rapid deaths?
Thank-you for taking the time to read this. Any wisdom appreciated!
