    Hey folks...
    Went to check on my fish today, and saw 2 corys, my small hoplo, and my butterfly fish, dead...
    Temp 76*F, no ammonia, no nitrite, nitrate about 30ppm, you see any problem?
    There are no signs of illness or infection...
    Tank is planted, and all other fish are happy as haarry...
    Last added fish was a female dwarf gourami, about 3 days ago, she is fine...
    Any ideas?
    whatever it is, i dont want it killing all my other fish...
    Mez
    p.s. i do not use salt...
    Currently keeping many wild betta species and other anabantoids.

    ...Bloodworm (frozen) was fed the previous day...but wouldn't that harm the other fish too?

    I suspect that the culprit could be the female gurami that u intro. She might have certain disease before but recovered and having the immunity but those fishes in your tank doesn't have which might cause their death.
