Not to question everyones good advice and all, but just adding another
thought, if you bought the praecox in a fish store, they may have just been
sick, doomed animals to begin with. Are you sure they were healthy from the
start?

I would consider the other advice you have received, I keep mine in my tap
water, which comes out with a high pH of 8.0 to 8.3, and medium hardness.
I've had them since August, in a planted tank and haven't killed them
yet.<g>
