[Bigdaddypuff]

So far i have had 2 Neons die and 1 guppie in the last 12 hours, the two neons died within an hour of each other. I just did a water change yesterday and i just my Water today Everything is normal ammonia at .01 or 0 PH at 7 Nitrate is at good. What do i do? And it looks like my Blue Guppie is dieing now too.

If your stats look fine and the fish aren't showing symptoms of any particular disease, all you can really do is lots of water changes and hope for the best

Hope all the rest of your fishies are ok...

DID YOU FORGET DECHLORINATOR?? dont belive there is a reason they should be dieing off that fast. aso you might be putting them threw shock with variations of water temp make sure the water you put in is same temp as in the tank.

A couple things. How old is the tank? How old are the fish. Neons and guppies... well in transport from fish stores and just because they are so over bred are a pretty weak fish. All I can really recommend is daily water changes. Good clean water. The other thing is that you did not give a reading for nitrite. You can have zero ammonia and a positive nitrite reading (note not nitrate). And nitrites kill quickly. Remember that it is two different types of good bacteria, ammonia metabolizing and nitrite metabolizing, that you need. I find the nitrite metabolizing are more fragile and so you need to test for these too.
