rainmalawi Posted February 7, 2013 Author Share Posted February 7, 2013 Thanks. I was at AM last Sunday but not much fishes. Iwarna also not much fishes. Instead I got one royal gramma from Ah Beng at Pasir Ris and it was feeding in my tank looking fine. But it died yesterday while my other fishes are doing fine. My guess is that it was killed by one of my fish although all my fishes should not be very aggressive ones (ie. medium percula clown, yellow wrasse, firegoby, other gobies, anthia, banggai cardinals). Maybe yellow wrasse whacked the royal gramma because the similar shape and size and the yellow color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot of reasons why it may die... can call Am to check next time. i still prefer fishes in the tank and see if it response to food as compared to bagged ones where its a gamble...

Agree. But most of the time people readily take bagged ones for popular fishes before they are transferred to tanks. And only the left overs are transferred to the tanks. So its a gamble.

rainmalawi Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 Maybe ur tank is overcrowded? I have about 15 fishes in a 4 x 2 x 2.5 feet tank. All are small fishes. Most gobies are in hiding and only few open swimmers are seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're skittish... but once comfy in your tank, they'll come out kpo and swim around abit, esp during feeding. Quote Fresh fishes and inverts! What's next? To the salty side of marine of course!
