Aqua Addict Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 I believe they mean have you tested the water for: - Ammonia - Nitrite - Nitrate - pH - GH/KH (Water Hardness) All these factors could be killing your fish if they are are not within the appropriate range. If you don't have access to test kits ask your local pet shop to test your water for you they should be able to do it. P.S. Tangles beat me to it.
