My girl fish Died after 1month and 2 weeks of keeping her.. she was a sunshine fish ... soo i woke this morning and found her dead under the filter...Last nite she was REALLLYY playful really happy and very interactive with me everytime i walk in the room she twirls .. and she did that last nite ... i only had two fishes one is boy the platy fish and sunshine fish which died... and i was wondering Do i have to change the whole water tank for the fish thats still alive and well and really fast at swiming...to be safe.. cuz normally u dont have to change the whole tank its only one third of it ...?i have a 1.77 galon tank ?
 
no... changing all the water would be a bad idea because it would mess up the balance in the tank... just test your water to make sure there isn't a problem with your tank that might have killed her (if you don't have a test kit take some to a fish store they'll usually test it for free)...and then do a normal partial water change.
 
Of course not. If you took the dead fish out within 24 hours, and there is no sign of disease in the living fish, just change 10 % of the water.
