So, I got this sohal tang about 3/4 weeks ago. And, I knew he was active and starting to tick off the orange-spotted rabbitfish. But, the rabbitfish is as big as he is, so I wasn't worried. Well, it turns out (and admittedly, I wasn't paying enough attention) that he has been stressing the other fish as well and a few of them were not eating.
In this short amount of time, I have lost four fish. I first lost my 6-line wrasse and then my royal gramma. Both of them came form my old BioCube and were over a year old. Next, I lost a strawberry pseudochromis that I got as a Christmas present. And then, I lost a yellow-tail damsel just the other day. This guy came with the tank in September...
I am so bummed. Unnecessary loss of life!!! I will be monitoring the sohal closely and if he doesn't straighten out his attitude, I will have to get rid of him. And, that really stinks. He is beautiful and was expensive. I thought that he would be my "show" fish. But, alas, I may be mistaken....
On another note, the CA reactor arrived and I will be installing it this weekend!!!!
And, since I have restarted dosing 2-part, my SPS are really starting to shine. They open their polyps during the day and the millepora are getting nice and "fuzzy" again.
