What do you do to the tank when you find a fish has died?

  • I visually check the tank to make sure there are no sick fish, then I go about my day.

  • I break the tank down, give it a good cleaning, toss the media and start the cycle all over

Unless it was some obvious and hideous disease (rare I know), I just carry on.

I would be a bit more observant with the rest of the tank for a while as a precaution but that's about it.
