Perhaps low dissolved oxygen which increased when you upped the flow :dontknow:
Has the temperature increased? That also reduces the amount of oxygen that can dissolve in the water.

Hey joc,
that was the first idea, but using a trickle filter, and also an aeration with 600L/h.
Also the water is brown/cloudy...
Maybe total dissolved solids ?
That they clog up the gills ???
