The only time I ever have problems with my guppies getting "sucked into" the filter was when ammonia levels spiked. All wound up dying. What do the dead fishes' bodies look like? Any extensive redness? Any white spots? I'm so sorry for your loss. I know it aches, and your heart it breaks You can only take so much -Walk On, U2

If they were weak they would not be able to swim away from your intake. Also more info about your filter just in case it is too strong or not set up correctly. *Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info* Look here for my Betta 11Gal Desktop & Placidity 5ft Community Tank Photos Keith Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do. I VOTE DO YOU if not WHY NOT? VOTE NOW VOTE NOW
