did you add stress coat to the water first?what temp is it when you say warm? my guppies dont even have a heater and they are thriving (I mean really really really thriving)did you wait a few days to buy them and put them in the tank?they might have just been ill prior to you getting them...did you see any dead fish in the tank? they might have just arrived at the store and were under stress and sometimes they die shorty after they arrive..you might want to take them back or if they are already disposed of take a sample of your water to them and your reciept and if they are good people they will give you new ones....***But I would go to a different place to buy your fish and take a water sample in a clean containerto the new pet/fish store and have them analize it they will usually do it for free.. if you live in the Baltimore county area I have a guppy explosion and would love to give you some for free...smile...good luck

could be overfeeding,or wrong temperature, but it sounds like you're doing everything right so maybe you are just unlucky. if i were you, i'd check again that everything is right and get some more fish. There could have been disease from the pet shop

Temperature, inless ph reading is inaccurate and water is acid.

Do you use chemicals in the water? Which ones?
