I have exactly 4 Tiger Barbs,and one elephanose left.I had a knifefish,6 tiger barbs and a pleco.But for some reason they keep dying,ive checked the pH,ive checked and none of them seems to have ick or anything,ive treated for annomia,ive cleaned the tank COMPLETELY,taken everything out and washed it by hand but nothing seems to work.I really dont know what to do anymore and im starting to think its the elephantnose killing them,but ive seen no signs of agression torwards him at night/day at all so im kinda getting desperate on this.Any sugguestions to what else could be making my fish die?

I wouldn't blame the elephant nose, they are quite peaceful fish. It sounds more like a water chemistry problem or a quite slow moving disease. Watch the tank carefully for any fish that act or look in anyway odd. Try to list all of the important factors about the tank and the fish (much like you did in this question except to include info on the fish you have noticed) and ask again when something is actively going on in the tank. That will make it much easier to diagnose. At this point anything else is just a wild guess honestly.
