    hi bros here,

    I'm experiencing my cherries dying. Thought the amount of death is nothing staggering, about 1 or 2 per days. Those which went dead, looks ok to me, body is really red type, but just don't know what causes them to die. ]
    Rest of the cherries are doing fine, eating as per normal. My tank temperature is between 25 deg to 26 deg.
    I've bought 50 pieces of them since last tuesday, till now(sunday), i guess there's about 30odd to 40 of them in my tank
    Wonder what could be the root cause of the problem? Or am i being too over concern? Isit consider normal den?

    Those that died body very red? Heard that those that are very red are very old... They could be dying of old age... Anyone can verify that?
