Thanks for the advice guys but the Heni was dead this morning I tried the garlic and everything but it was just too late. Man... they go fast when the go huh? What are the suggestions...should I get another one or a different kind of fish... My levels are PH-7.8 Nitrite-.2 Nitrate-10 and Amonia-.0. These are good levels right? Salinity is at 1.023 Sorry guys I am just trying to explain his loss. thanks
 
Sorry for your loss. I can relate as I have lost 2 of them in qt recently. I think they had cyanide poisioning.
I must be a glutton, I just put a deposit on 2 more from a different lfs. Just disinfected my qt and gonna give it another go. These guys look fat, clean and are eating well. See what happens.
I am determined, would like a pair for my final 2 fish. Beautiful fish with a nice disposition and from all I've read, do very well after they acclimate.
Good luck, whatever you decide.
 
PS, did you get your Heni from RMS? Thats where I got my 2. Think I will stay clear of them in the future. These 2 are coming from Aquarium Adventure on Ridge Rd. Got my Maculosus Angel from them and she's doing great.
 
No I got him from Live Aquria.com got some others from there and they are doing great. So who knows. Sorry about your loss as well. Hope all goes better for you. I heard that Aqurium Adventure is a good place to get fish from.
 
Yes, seems good.
They had 3 Heni butterflies yesterday, I bought 2 of them. The remaining is a little bigger but looks healthy. You may want to check him out if interested. I would have purchased the 3rd too, but getting tight on bioload. :wink:
