Sorry for your losses. Thats a really hard question to answer though. It could be a lot of things from illness to water parameters etc.... Maybe try giving us some water parameters and try to think if there is anything else as far as symtoms that could help us.

Dang sorry to hear, always tough when we lose and fish. And even worse when we don't know why!

I don't really have an answer for you, but it sounds like they both must have had the same issue since they came from the same place at the same time. Worms, flukes, bacterial disease....sometimes these are very difficult to detect until its too late.

Unfortunately those fish could have been doomed before you ever bought them. Its really hard to say what caused it but be careful. Flukes are very common and prazipro is pretty easy and safe to use and goes a long way twords fish health. Its always better to QT and only lose one or two fish than to lose all your fish to something that came in with a new guy IMO.
