This is sort of a loaded question and should be posted into another forum. There are alot of variables and specifics about your tank setup, water quality etc. that would need to be answered as well in order to try and help pin down the cause.

Thanks,
Bill

Picked this one up last weekend, it's my first brain. It's about 3-1/2" across.

Well here is my open brain. Nothing special but I really like it.



I traded the brain below for the one pictured above because it got too big for my nano. It is eating my damsel in this one.
