Found Dead

[omega59]

I been searching for 2 days for one of the dead platy's. there started to become a nasty smell coming from the tank and i've finally foun the platy dead. she had a gross white filmth on her body and pure white eyes eww. anyhow, will this harm my fish that are in the tank, if so how do i clean or remove any toxins that dead fish may have made??

yeah it wont be a good thing, best to get any dead fish out asap. if it been dead a while your best doing a water change then at least that should help your tank. do you what it died of?

I agree. Vaccume the gravel around where the fish was as good as you can also. I wonder if the white film could be something that happened after death from it not moving for so long??

yes the white filmth happened while it was dead, ever since it droped 35fry it has been not well, so i will pressume this was the cause, i will do a clean-up ty.
