Aquarium Advice Apprentice
We have a 20g breeder tank. We started with two clownfishes at the end of July and added a (very small) regal blue tang in late September, hoping to buy a 65g system after the holidays. The blue tang died in early November and we decided to keep the two clowns alone and see how they did (since they had been fine from July through September without the tang). The smaller clown got sick a couple of times (one time in October and the second time in mid December) and died last week. We now have one clown and nothing else. The clown that is living was literally hovering over the dead clown for an hour until I finally decided I needed to remove him or he would be covered completely in sand. It was the saddest sight!
I am wondering if there we should treat the tank or do partial daily water changes, etc. before adding another clown. It hurts to lose these little creatures and I want to make sure that there isn't some protocol that we're missing by just adding another fish. As always, any response and advice is greatly appreciated.
