[Identification of cause of dead fish]

yesterday night when i fed the fish they were fine and today morning I noticed they were dead. not sure what could be the cause but i noticed their tail fins were torn apart. is it something some other fish could have attacked them.

I have guppies and tetras in the tank for lack of sufficient food or may be aggressive fish, i am trying to figure out

i have the following in the community tank

Guppies

Neon Tetra
Black Neon
Orange Von
Ember
Silver tip

any suggestions or recommendations to identify the cause

I've bought fish several times online and I have only lost 1 fish. I've bought through online sellers including aquahuna and others. I also bought some from fish breeders that sell online. Buying fish online is pretty reliable for me. 

@David Ellsworth Can you provide some fish breeders that sell online.

are there any alternatives

[Easy Carbon effect on Java moss and Vallisneria and Anachris.]

i was going to order easy carbon to control the algae growth as a precautionary measure, but i have plants link java moss, Vallisneria and Anachris. if i apply easy carbon on 55 gallon and 40 gallon tank will it be suicidal to the plants. 

any experiences with same kind of plants.. please advice

[Hang on back filter water flow]

@Garren B Thanks for your reply

[Hang on back filter water flow]

@Garren B thanks, keeping sponge is good idea, does this affect breeding or giving birth to live bearers? as water is constantly flowing and disturbing the water

just curious

[Hang on back filter water flow]

my hang on back filter is flowing water fast is it ok for fishes like guppies and tetras . if i reduce the flow, i am worried about less water being filtered.

my hang on back filter runs 24 hours a day.

any suggestions or recommendations
