Question

[Bongobus]

hi,
can anybody help, i have a aquaart 60 litre tank and have had it for about a year. My problem is, every time i try to add new fish, they die. I don't know if i have a disease and my fish supplyer said it could be fin rot so, i treated the tank with melafix and some of the fish are still going but my problem has been going on for about 4-5 months and i am losing heart and i just don't know what to do next.
Hopefully someone will reply and i can get it sorted!!
Many Thanks.

Fish can fetch desease into a tank from bacterial to parasites, thats why its best to issolate new fish for at least 4 to 6 weeks.
