What the heck, we're all just guessing here, right? I'm going to guess a heavy metal issue. Maybe there's a problem with some of your LR, or maybe somebody played "wishing well" with a few pennies you haven't noticed... In the case of any metal, the process of leeching takes a while, so I'd do a couple of massive water changes ~50% or so, and then introduce some snails. If they live for a while, then die in a week or two, you'll be replacing a lot of your LR...

Just guessing. Free advice is worth the price you pay.

Im wondering if something is poisoning the water.Any clean freaks in the house going crazy with glass cleaner or furniture polish?Something like those in the water would cause problems without showing up on the tests.
