Loosing fish Need help

I haven't been able to come up with a reason. But it started about 2 weeks ago when I lost 1 Chromis and a Bicoloured Blenny, Now I seem to be loosing a fish a day. This morning I lost my Watanabe Angel, Yesterday was another Chromis, before that was a christmas wrasse, before that leaopard wrasse. I've tested everything and my Ammonia is 0.01, Nitrite 0.0 Nitrate 0.0. I have seen some invert deaths but for the most parts they are OK. I did set up a frag tank recently. Also the bodies show no sign of attack, the evening before they fed well and acted normally. no new fish have been introduced for months

Any suggestions would be great.

Is the frag tank plumbed into your main tank ?

Maybe there was a bigger AM spike ?

 

yes it is but there was no AM spike. it's only a 30G with no LR + the snails I put in the Frag tank are fine.

thanks for the help

So sorry for losses... wish I had a possible answer for you... fish loss with good water params!!! - that is SCARY!!

Need to find answer for all our sakes.

Best of luck and with regrets,

Hmmmmm, old age strikes quickly :'(

 

I'm sure you probably ground probe your tank, but stray voltage came across my mind while trying to think out of the box. What else are we missing here, let's cover all the bases. So they have no sign of attack, that's good! Are there any signs of disease on the body, how about the feces?

Bummer tho, sounds frustrating.

That sucks! Sorry to hear about all the fish losses! I know it's frustrating, especially if you don't know why it is happening!!!!!
I would try a water change! Also, is you salinity level in check? How about the temperature of your water? Also, you may have an oversaturation of dissolved CO2 causing your fish to suffocate!!!

 

Jason,

Just had thought --- oxygen level

Any large water changes without aeroating well first? -- recently added large fish?

Hard thing to check for but O2 could have been depleated somehow.

Should not be a problem for a tank your size.

Anyway just a thought. Throw an airstone in there.

Try moving all your fish into a QT tank. Maybe you have some chemical or toxin that was introduced on your hands or new equipment from your frag tank. Also, have you checked the Temp? I would also run alot of carbon in your tank for now.
Karma for your losses!

 

do you have kids? Could they have put anything into the tank? I did it when I was little. Didnt mean any harm by it, just thought they would like the taste of pepto, hahahaha. Well I found out they didnt.
