| Fish Suddenly Dying. Help. | |

| So my tank has been cycled and there have been a few fish in it | |
| for about 2 weeks. So I decided to add more neon tetras to my | |
| tank. They were fine for about three days but Starting two days | |
| ago one has died everyday. Randomly. I was looking at the tank | |
| and came back an hour later with one of the fish caught in the | |
| filter dead. What is going on? | |

| Sounds like "new tank syndrome". Your biological filtering was | |
| not ready for the fish. All my fish losses have been in the | |
| first 2 months of the aquarium being set up. Or your latest | |
| purchases may have had a disease. | |

| The best way to add move fish to a newly setup and cycled tank | |
| is one or two at a time, at lest that is what I have seen with | |
| my tank. You can buy some stuff that help the cycle, like Fluval | |
| Biological Enhancer, every time you add fish too. I have done | |
| both and didn't lost any fish. Try doing a bigger water change | |
| to help with the increase of ammonia from the new fish you | |
| added. Good luck I hope you don't lose any more, it is a sad day | |
| when a fish dies. | |
