My purple tang has been with us since the beginning 15 months ago now. He has lived through three tank moves, ich, and my stupidity. My percula clowns lived just as long, but my puffer ate one and the other lives in a peaceful nano now. I also have damsel fish from the beginning as well but they will live forever since they are the devil himself.
Since this new tank my only fish issues are with the two angels, my Majestic and Emperor. Sadly they just got sick and died very rapidly for no reason that I could see. I have two others that are healthy, but they are form tank shut downs and are super healthy. The two I lost are form a store and perhaps they are not as hardy as the fish that have been in an aquarium for quite some time.
I won't be doing anymore angel since it is not worth the chance. I think my healthiest fish are the puffer and my tangs, they just thrive. My angels looked wonderful, but they are not as interactive as the tangs so perhaps I should have seen something much sooner.
Thanks for the replies everyone. I know what fish not to get or try ever again.
