Elastic Search giving invalid format error when using decimal numbers

Hello everyone - I just observed something and I was wondering if anyone
has seen something similar. I have a mapping in which there are strings,
floats, double etc. Now for the following query, I get an error:
IllegalArgumentException[Invalid
format: "3000.9" is malformed at ".9"];

{
"query": {
"filtered": {
"query": {
"simple_query_string": {
"query": "3000.9",
"fields": [
......//this is where I give a list of all the different
fields: strings, numbers, dates etc
],
"default_operator": "and"
}
}
}
}
}

However, when I search for "3000" (note that there is no decimal), it works
fine.

Any clue what I might be doing wrong here?

-Amit.
