Hi,

I'm new to this, but in the past 24 hours i've lost 2 lemon tetras and a harlequin rasboras (had 2). I have a 180l tank with various tetras, 2 x dwarf gouramis, cherry barbs, guppies and corys and they are doing well apart from the sudden deaths of these 3. I had only had the lemon tetras a day but the other rasbora doesn't look well either.

Can anyone help.

Need to know how long the tank has been set up, plus water stats in ammonia,nitrite,nitrate, and ph.
 
If you don't have a test kit on hand, take a water sample to your LPS, but also do an immediate water change. You siad you are new to this, so i'm betting your tank is still cycling (the process where beneficial bacteria is buitl up to break down the amonia and nitrite) and this is very stressful and lethal to fish.
