Hello,
I'm new to the salwater world and have setup a 29 gallon tank. It has been up running for about 2 months. All of my parameters are at 0 and after it cycled I added 2 clownfish. I know I should have added just one but that was a rookie mistake.
I cycled the tank using 2 shrimp that were on the smaller side.
The clownfish were about the same size when I bought them. The last couple of days I saw one of them darting at the other and I figured they were really fighting out the dominance. When I got back from class last night I saw the one who was being the less dominant one stuck in a corner and whenever he would try to move out the other one would push him back.
I didn't think much of it last night but I woke up this morning and he was dead. I feel really bad that I dint do anything about it.
I had these guys about 3 weeks. I don't think he looked like he had any of the diseases that pop up on Google.
Could the other one have killed him? They weren't all that big 2 inches or so. They were both true perculas.
Second question is: in a couple of weeks if I decide to get another one, am I able to get occerllaris (sp)?
I want to make sure that if there is a disease in the tank that I know about to before I add another clown.
Thanks guys.
