Hello All,
Im making this post for my Dad. He started up a salt tank a few months ago and recently has been having trouble getting fish to live. I told him I thought it was a sailfin tang that was super aggressive harassing fish. We thought it killed at least 4 fish. They’d go int the tank and 2-3 days later they’d die. So he he returned it to fish store and got a blue tang and 2 clownfish. All was a good for about 3 days and just today he sends me a picture of his tang dead. Clownfish too and one other fish. This is leading me to think it’s a disease. I feel bad cause he’s getting discouraged. He just had his water checked before buying the new fish too and ammonia levels were 0 and nitrate around 15-20. Nothing crazy. I have a pic here of the blue tang. Any thoughts?
