![]() Mine was caused by a kalkwasser overdose, did a massive water change which stemmed it a bit. But in the end i lost all my nice sps and some smaller fish. I just gave up trying to correct all the water parameters in the tank and restarted in a bigger tank.

![]() I don't use Kalk, but I'll keep that in mind if I ever do start using it. I have always used the same salt and when I took a look at the blenny I didn't notice anything out of whack.
Just tested water again and everything read where it should. Hopefully this was just a freak occurence because I was just finally starting to like the way the tank was looking. Obviously I'll be holding off on any fish purchases for a while....hermph

![]() could be something like internal parasites like heart worms or gill flukes, seems to be a problem that will start by killing off the weekest first and continue, or stop all together if your other fish are in good health. I had this happen 6 or 7 years ago and lost a few one day and buy the time I figured it out I lost nearly all my prise fish "near $1000 worth" had to do a little disecting to find out.

![]() any signs of cyanide catching on the copperband?
I think the easiest signs are clouded eyes and pinkish cheeks (or the area slighty behind where I imagine a fishes cheeks might be), like it's blushing? |

![]() I noticed a bit of a cloudy eye a few days after I added the fish to the tank, but seemed to clear up after anothe couple of days. Wasn't aware of anything else.
Today the tank looks good, Mandarin is still nice and fat/healthy looking. Foxface and Kole are out and active as usual. Wierd
