I came down stairs this morning and was shocked to see one of my platies dead, what I don't understand is that last night I spent about an hour just watching them all swim round and they all seemed fine. I checked my water readings this morning and they are the following:-

Ammonia 0

Nirtrites 0

Nitrates 25 ( always have been)

Ph 7.5

Temp 77f

The only thing I did was a 20% water change yesterday morning using stress coat before adding the water to the tank. Why did my platy die?
 
just wondering when you bought the platy, is it relatively new to the tank?? due to the fact that the water seems fine i just thought that maybe there was parasites present when you bought the platy from the store :dunno: ( take note that i am very inexperienced :/ )
 
This platy had been in my tank for about 7 weeks. Nothing has been added to the tank since I got the platies.
