Found Guppy Dead, Tumour?

[seany28]

Hi all, first time at the forums, i have a fluval edge tank set up, about 6 weeks old with a small variety of fish.
This morning i woke up to find one of my female guppys, (who i'm sure was pregnant as what i presume is her
gravid spot was fairly prominent.) floating dead on the surface.
She was really bloated but upon closer inspection, had a small brownish boil on the side of her, which she definietly did not have
yesterday.
There should be some pictures on this post.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, i don't have any idea what has happened, the tank's PH and ammonia counts are spot on etc and they have a varied diet.

Hi Sean.
Did you cycle your tank?
Also you say your readings are 'spot on' but can we have the exact numbers please?
Thanks,
Elise
