OK MY PROBLEM i have no problem keeping corals in fact they grow at a suprising rate(suprising to me at least). but my fish started dying about 2 and a half weeks ago and now all that i have left are my 2 sleeper gobys. i had 1 percula clown 3 yellowtail damsles 1 lawnmower goby and 1 blue tang all die on me. now im not a super experience reefer but i am a competant person. i have read several saltwater books on setup and maintanace so other then maybe adding the fish a little to fast i am not sure what im doing wrong, and im kinda afraid to buy anymore fish. what i dont understand is i thought corals where harder to keep then fish and all mine are doing fine the only coral i have had die on me is one that i ordered from vancouver and it didnt make the trip. PLEASE HELP ME |
