What can cause a fish to decline so much in 2 days when he was fine? I guess theres probaly a number of things but just upset by losing this fish, seeing as he was doin so well. Whats you expirence with the PB? thanks alot

Most likely the fish you bought was from the Philippines or Indonesia where the use of cyanide is rampant. Insist on net caught fish which are available.
The powder blue tang is a poor choice with a poor survival experience.
Here are the tangs to avoid.
