I recently started the hobby, and everything was progressing wonderfully.. I had a 29 gallon biocube, 2 clownfish 1 gobi, and then I made the fateful decision to get a coral beauty. Now my gobi is gone, my coral beauty is missing half her fin and has an injury healing from just being plain rude. I moved all my fish to a new 75 gallon with 2 year old live rock, and let them get acclimated, but the coral beauty was just rude to everyone. I thought they were going to work it out, but then I added a Melanus wrasse, and boom. She starts pestering everyone. The wrasse doesn't let her get away with it, but the gobi stops sifting sand, and from what I gather made a fateful exit into my dogs stomach. The coral bueaty has now stopped being so aggressive since the wrasse put her in its place, but she's injured both from making a run for it in the tank transfer and the fin nipping when she nips the other fish.

How did my stocking go so wrong.
