had you added anything new recently, even a new plant or ornament. sometimes dirt can be on shop bought ornaments and plants can carry infections. ____________

Happened to me once, fed fish as usual, hours later they popped it.
But that was my neeces fault, she put a whole mug of orange juice in and they died
But yours could be from ANYTHING litterally, so easy to do.
without noticing...sorry for your loss  |

Poor fish!
I would never have thought of electrocution either! Thanks for posting that, I think I'll get a new filter actually, mine is quite old now.
