Hi everyone, Im new. Hope you have some ideas for me.
I just bought 6 goldfish for my coldwater tank. The day after I bought them, one died. There didnt seem to be anything wrong with him. About a week later, (today) another one died. This one was in the same tank at the petstore with the other one that died. They are calico fancytails. My others, two black moors, a reg fancytail and a shubunken look perfectly healthy and they were in different tanks. My question is, what do you think was wrong with them. There were no signs of Ick on either of them and they acted perfectly healthy hours before they died. Is it something they brought home with them? Could my others catch it? Any ideas would be helpful. This is my first coldwater tank. My husband and I have been very successful with our brackish tank, guppy tank, cichlid tank and our tetras.
