You can see the rest of my tank in my signature below, but suffice it to say, I bought 2 small angelfish, $10 each, and six days later one was dead without any indications anything was wrong.
Tank was cycled for months, here are the stats of chemicals:
Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - 10 or 20
pH - 8.0
gH - 300
kH - 240
(I could be wrong on the last two - that's from memory - but I know I have very hard water with a high alkalinity)
These levels NEVER change. The other fish are fine, including the other angel.
So the only thing I can think of is that I got a weak fish! Worse thing is the LFS I went to, which prides itself on being the best in my area (they only do fish), only has a 48 hour guarantee! Petsmart has a 14 day! I got half my fish from Petsmart only because they're around the corner from me and it was convenient, but now I think I'll be going to them from now on!
Needless to say, I'm upset.
