    Are designer clownfish more likely to die early?

    My Black Storm Trooper Clown died yesterday. I'd had her for 3 years. She appeared totally fine and healthy, ate like a pig and was the boss of the tank. There were no signs of disease or attack (No fish would try attacking her and I quarantine and pre-treat all my fish before they enter the...

    EMERGENCY Clownfish died from what seems to be white spot. Help with ID?

    In theory when looking at a tank of any size, there’s a limit to the amount and size of fish you can put in it. However, I feel as though a lot of tanks can be “overstocked” and as long as parameters remain stable and the fish are happy, this is negligible. I’d like to get some more opinions on...
