Anything could have happened to the filter between the time you last had a test kit and now. If some bacteria died, they would not be ready for the extra fish you put in. If this is the case, water changes and test kit are needed.

Or the new fish brought in disease that your oldies were too weak to fight off.

Guppies tend to be fragile after 1-2 years. My oldest males were about 3 years old when they died. Yeah, they were known as the hardiest fish but it appears that a lot of people are losing guppies fast nowadays. None of mine would die too early after they got past the 1st month of life back in the 90s.

Keep a close eye on the newbies. If they also start acting strange or some of them die, then there's definitely a disease in there. (in case water parms are still ok)
Also get the test kit.

Try taking a sample of water to your LFS. Parameters will help us pinpoint your problem. Also pictures of the dead can help. Good luck, hope all goes well.
