I look at the situation somewhat differently, I don't own any fish, they own me, or perhaps more appropriately are guests in my 77 gal glass box. Glass box has been operative for almost 7 years and there have been casualties. At the moment I have 6 guests, a Maroon Clownfish pair, Yellow Tang, Singapore Angelfish, Mandarin Dragonet & Yellowtail Damselfish.
Casualties have been 3 Lawnmower Blennies, a Blue Devil Damselfish, a group of Blue/Green Chromis & a Copperband Butterfly fish. At one point I added a second Mandarin thinking it was a female. Turned out to be another male but I was able to capture it & pass it on to another hobbyist.
