Default Ready to give up on fish

I am ready to give up on buying new fish. It seems I cant keep a new fish for longer than a couple of days. I had a kole tang for 6 months then added a naso and a week later found the kole tang on the floor. Then the naso kicked the bucket, then a month later my regal bit it. I bought a longhorn cowfish, that lasted about 5 days. Then more recently I bought a rainsford goby, saw him a couple of times then gone. I picked up a sand sifting goby up off another reefer and less than a week later seen a set of bones in the tank. I just got my frag tank up and running and was at an lfs and saw this bi color blenny and thought what a cool looking fish. So I picked him up. 2 days later, i couldnt find it so started a search and eventually found him in the sump still alive but didnt look good at all. I put him back in the tank and didnt expect him to live very long. Well this morning I woke up to find the last of him being finished off by my cleaner shrimp. When I started keeping sps coral I thought that keeping fish was a breeze but now sps is a breeze and I cant keep a new fish alive to save my own. :-(
