IF your having random daily deaths are the following are done correctly.
-ammonia, no2 are both 0ppm
-no3 less then 10ppm
-temp 20-25
-water changes are dripped in slowly. (Tds is matched) once every other week
-not over feeding (I feed once per week now)
-no planaria or hydras
THEN
-it's most likely you have a bacteria infection.
-use any products with beta glucan (amazing stuff for boosting immune system)
-use indian almond leafs aka capatta (speeds up healing)
-pussy willow bark (kill bacteria both good and bad, so never leave in tank for more then 2 days)
-get an air pump attached to an airstone or double sponge filter (Japanese breeders always stress the importance of high O2 concentration)
Keep in mind water changes are important because:
-they reduce phosphate concentration
-they lower bacteria density
-they adjust your REDOX reading (too tired on a monday morning to explain, hense the bullet form, look it up or could someone be as kind to explain it's purpose in an aquarium setting) basically its the ability or there lack of for electron exhange between molecules.
