Tank set up 300l
inhabitants
Yellow tang
2xclownfish
Black Lep wrasse
Then I had a peacock wrasse and a dart fish.
parameters
1.025 salinity
8.6kh
1350mg
440 cal
Nitrate 5-10
Phos 0.03-0.1
everything been in the tank for approx 3 months, tank is 7 months old.
all fish where getting on fine and eating well. 2 weeks ago my peacock wrasse was on the sand when I got home at first thought the inevitable had occurred but when I went to get it out it shot off into the sand to sleep. Next day still was acting the same and my tang grabbed its tail abit so put it into my QT tank to see if it would recover. Dart fish was hiding more than normal but did feed. Last night my dart fish was out still moving but resting more on the sand. Noticed a cut or mark on its stomach as shown in photos. Removed him to QT and he died after a couple hours.
im unsure if this damage is from the tang and he’s killing fish or if it could be down to something else. I do have an emerald crab also. The ripped tail on this dart fish was from months back when I had an aggro wrasse who I returned due to its bullying it had healed since.
