Default Achilles Tang dies...
My Achilles Tang died. In a last attempt to save him, I took him to a LFS so they could put him into a medicated tank. Achilles tangs don't take well to new environments and it is likely that this final move was too much for him in his weakened condition.

In keeping this fish for over three years, I suppose I did better than many. However, in the end I'm disappointed that I've lost two Acanthuras tangs in my time. I don't think I'll be rushing out to get another Acanthuras tang of any type soon.

Hi Brad

I feel your pain.

It is always very troubling when we loose any of our favorites.
