Just started today. She isnt thin and everyone else is doing fine. Salinity is good. Tank is 9 months old. Tonight shes still alive but she didnt bury her hole before bed. Any idea of what could be wrong? I really love this fish

Did she eat pellets or frozen with the other fish? I have a links goby that significantly decreases sand sifting after having some taste on frozen food...Now he eats like the other fish every day -- swimming to the surface and waiting to be fed

Maybe it's like the pizza box says: " You've tried the rest [substrate], now try the best [frozen]!" 
She does get frozen food with the rest and she is not starved for sure. But i fear something has happend unless there is some sort of thing they do that i dont know about. But this is way out of her norm. Plenty of oxygen making it into the water. No spikes. Nothing makes sense. She looked healthy. But i also couldnt go up to the tank without her running into her holeDid she eat pellets or frozen with the other fish?

Really sorry to hear that. Do you think any fish might have been messing with it?
I dont know. The most i could think would be the emerald crab. Idk. Im super sad because i did find her dead. Just because they are fish doesnt mean we dont get attached and love them. The was red under her head with a gash in her side but that could be from after she died. Seemed like her issue started a couple days before and she became scared of everything. I wish i knew how to prevent this from ever happening again.
