Hello all....
I have just set up a 30 gallon tank a month ago. I stocked accordingly along with the use of BioSpera's Bio additive for cycling. Everything was running smoothly baboies being born and such. Then outta nowhere these guppies started dying on eby one. hour by hour. The fry remain alive. The cory and clown loach are alive.

I've tested the water...perfect.
I've done the water change.

What could possibly be happening. I now remain at on male guppie who looks like he's on his way out and one female guppie whose doing great. A cory cat and a clown loach. And a couple fry.

What is going on?What am I doing wrong?
 
what did you test for? and what were the readings?

have you added anything to the tank recently?
did you use the guppies in the cycle?
 
Tank age is 1 month, so the cycle isn't over?

If it is, how long has the cycle been over (how many fish did you add after)?
Water readings?
Recent additions? (anything within 4 weeks, and if so how long after induction to losses)
Maintenance schedule and water change % (gravel vacs also?)
Conditioner?
 
also, the clown loach is going to get far to large for your tank. a group of six needs more than 180 gallons. you should take it back to the LFS.

have you noticed any aggression?

Also the cories need to be in a group of 4+, while stocking is thrown out there...

Probably parems. You have a liquid test kit, right? Test for ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates. If ammonia/nitrites are over 0, and nitrates over 30, do a large water change (50%). Do it anyway since your fish are dropping like flies.
 
Maybe this will make things convenient :D
