I had my first fish losses . I quarantined 4 tangs together: a yellow, Kole, powder brown and powder blue. I was hoping that the large tank size would allow happy co-existence. They all made it through QT fine, and did fine in the tank for a couple of months. Then the powder brown and powder blue started fighting, chasing each other endlessly around the tank. My kids thought that they were in love because of all the chasing and circling. But it was not to be. I got home from work the other night and they were both in the corner, both of them scratched and torn, exhausted but still pecking at each other. I pulled out the blue and put him in the QT, but by morning he was a goner, and the brown just disappeared the next night. Crab food I would guess. *sigh* makes me sad because they were both beautiful fish, but I guess I was just tempting fate.
Current fish are the Yellow and Kole tangs, the damsels (the Minions), a clownfish pair, a firefish pair, and a hard-working diamond watchman goby. I think that will be it for a few months, then I will think about adding a few more. I would like a group of dispar or ignitus anthias. We shall see...
