Having worked at a fish store with a dedicated QT back room you see enough fish to start to be able to recognize certain fish diseases. I never said they die for no reason, most have internal parasites that cause issues with eating ie: never will take to frozen or will try to nibble at/start to eat frozen but not gain any weight due to internal parasites. Seen enough super skinny lumpy tummy powder blues to be able to recognize eating issues when I see it. Not to mention the well known ich magnets they are. Add that with a tank that's to small for them and IMO you're asking for trouble/issues. The OP asked for opinions on tank size/compatibility so I gave him mine.
