Default Re: Fish Died Overnight

get a complete freahwater test kit.... and test the water Ph ammi nitrate nitrites.... My guess is you over stocked the tank before it had completely cycled and you fish died because the nitrate levels got to high..... generally a tank full of dead fish means the there is something worng with the water..... Bad water quailty not doing weeking WC's with a good rotation of gravel vacuming.

I would love to tell you what went wrong but your not give enough info on the tank water..... did the fish stop eating did they look very thin... info like that will help get a more correct answer to help you. I'm pretty sure this has happened to a lot pf people in the hobby, heck a few of the tanks I have are from people who just couldn't find the time to keep there fish alive by proper maintence........
