Hello all,

Few months ago, I stocked 10 yellow tail damsels in my 130 G tank. The next day one died and 9 of them get together very well. Infact the hang around the toadstool coral and make a very nice display. There are some chasing here and there but nothing rough. Yesterday I counted and looked like one just vanished. All the other 8 are healthy and getting bigger. Now comes the questions:

1. What explains sudden death?
2. Should I add one more to make an UNEVEN lot as I read in books about stocking damsels?

Thanks DP
