sadly, my threadfin butterfly fish and my smallest percula clown have died in the last 48 hours.
this is the part of fish keeping that sucks.
i think my butterfly died after stress, overnight it looked like he got himself stuck between 2 live rocks and couldn't move, thats where i found him.
this morning i turned the lights on and all 4 of my clowns were swiming around happily, and just before i go to work, after feeding them i find the smallest of my clowns dead on the bottom of the tank, a victim of feeding agression with other clowns? or something else,
i haven;t checked my water conditions yet, but i change 30% of the water on thwe weekend,
are my fish all destined for the same fate? am i to inexperianced to be keeping marine? should i find new homes for everything and go back to tropical...
whats left in my 55G
3 percula clowns
1 damsel blue
3 turbo snails.
what i've lost since keeping the tank
1 humbug damsel (stress related after tank move)
1 threadfin butterfly
1 percula clown
i'm not feeling very good about it at the moment, i dunno if i should stick it out and carry on, or start over and go back to trops...
sad day in the fishy smith house hold.
