Why do my fish keep dying off? It’s not ick and ph is 7 and ammonia is zero.?
I don’t know what is going on. I do water changes and treat the water every 2weeks, I have a 70gallon filter and an undergravel filter. I use aquarium salts and use stress coat. So far I’ve lost 1 gold honey gourami, 2 red dwarf gouramis, one moonlight gourami and an orarge glow fish(dyed zebra danio). I don’t know what is going on. someone please help.
I never use soap in my aquarium and the fish don’t seem to look any different other than in my Glofish(dyed Zebra Danio). They only get fed once a day so I don’t think that I am over feeding them. Their gills seem to be a little red, I’m not sure if they were like that when I got them. Have had them since October. But all the Gouramis that have died are fairly new, within a month and a half. I just noticed that two more Glofish have died since this morning.
I also just noticed that my last Moonlight Gourami’s left eye is all cloudy. Is this any indication of a disease.

They might have another disases maby you should describe if they look a little off… umm you might be doing something wrong, when you clean the aquariam do you use soap DONT!!! maby overfeeding or its just time for them..
Tank might not be fully cycled yet and you have nitrites to think of. It’s going to be a long hard road. Maybe add some biospira or a used filter to cycle it completely through.
For fungus, give them some salt. 1 teaspoon for five gallons. Apply for at least a day and then water change it out. It’s the only method that worked for me.
