My gourami got sick and sat at the bottom of the tank all day, then it died a couple of weeks later. My other gourami is now sitting at top of tank and doesnt swim round much. My neon died this morning. My silver tetra is having a seizure or something!! Its just floating in one spot flapping its fins everywhere.

I do water changes every two weeks. I feed them once in the morning.
I am on town water. So the ph is around 7.
I put fish tank dechlorinater in the water when i do the water changes.
I replace carbon filters
There is no algae in tank
There appears to be no ammonia since i did a test.
I havent tested for nitrites because i ran out of the test kit.
The pump, filter and air bubbles go 24/7
There are live plants in my tank for the fish

The only thing i can think of is swim bladder disease.
When both gouramis became sick they have had this white transparent string coming out there ass...maybe they are constipated from swim bladder disease???

i dont know...help!
 
Well, it's really hard to tell, but I'm pretty sure there is just one fish causing the problem. One dies, the rest go with it... try putting each in it's own container for a while and see which one (s) is (are) sick.
