I wonder if any of you can help. I added this chap two weeks ago to my established tank.
Water parameters checked two days ago
Amonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 5ppm
Phosphate 0
Alk high
SG 1024
Temp 79
He spent his first week harrassing one of the soft leathers, to the extent the leather went into a sulk.
Two days ago he crawled up the glass of the tank and stayed there, yesterday morning he was on the sand and didnt move all day. This morning I noticed gunk floating in the tank, I fished out all that I could find and it is indeed a snails innards. The tiger cowrie shell is now empty .
His tank mates are two clowns, an flame angel and sailfin tang. 2 cleaner shrimps, 1 emerald crab, 2 trochus, 2 cerith 2 conch.
Any clues what could have done for him? Old age? suicide? murder? or a mistake on my part?
I hope I have included all the relevant info. Many thanks for taking the time to read this.
