the same place you got the fish. PBT has been known to perish mostly due to malnutrition. Before it even reach your pet store it has been alreday starved for days. PBT are some of the surgeons you would wan to provide food for them to gaze all day long cos that's wat they do in the wild.

PBT died this morning...its death was a valuable loss to me :cry: rest in peace my friend

Not sure if this helps you feel any better but I just feel like sharing my exp with PBT.

I think sometimes when we buy fishes we have to be very careful, but luck still plays an important part.

I bought a PBT from Reborn last tuesday. I saw them arrive the previous friday, but knowing that PBT are not very 'hardy'. I waited afew days for nature to take its course.

I was reluctant to get PBT coz when I started marine; I got a PBT from a shop only for it to develop 'white spots' on the body on the second day and died on the third. I went back to the shop and found all the PBT in the tank have white spots.

Maybe your PBT was not well when you bought it. Plus the fact of new tank environment may have stressed it. Don't feel too bad about it. Live and learn.

Peace :)
