I am not sure anyone will feel sad when your fishes dies or do anyone just buy new fishes when the fishes die. I personally feel very sad and heart pain for my pocket as well as the fishes. I had many experience when I buy the fishes and the next thing I saw is they are dead in the tank. I find that this is really a waste of natural resources as fishes are depleting and the money spend on it is wasteful. I think most of us just put the fishes which we purchase straight into the tank so we can see them straight away. But this is a wrong approach! I might be wrong cos I am also a amateur reefer. However, my suggestion is to quarantine it for a few hours in a small pail or tank with a pump. Feed them some food to allow them to accustom to the food source. When they start feeding, I think you are ready to put them in. I like to place my fishes in at night when the tank is only with the moonlight on. In this way they are less probe to attack by my matured tank mates! I am sure this is really helpful and it help me save the fishes from dying and affect ecosystem of my reef tank. Hope this will help new reefers as well as save the fishes from the human mishandling them. Every life is important! Also remember to ask the seller more infomations about the fishes before purchase! Dont buy bcos they are beautiful but not knowing how to care for them! Be a responsible reefers! Cheers!
