Not really seen any cases of fish diseases affecting Corals unless it is the death of the fishes that causes Water quality to degrade.

is it true that some fishes are so hard to maintain? i got angle fishes that dies off but hardy fish like royal gamma, goby and clown still alive...:(

Yes it is true that some fishes can be more difficult than others. The key element is really getting it to eat. Fishes that eat have much higher chance of surviving in out tank. Do read up on fishes info b4 you buy them to be safe.

Think sometime, things are hard to explain. Alot of things are beyond our control, so we can only try our very best to control and improve on things which we can do. For me, i got problem keeping true per....very sad.....as i love the paired true per and blk ocellaris(except maroon clown is fine). All the time, they dont do well. Hence, now stop trying as alot of ppl told me is new tank sickness where most ppl cannot give me a definite answer to my problem. They say clown is hardy but to me...it is not...wahahaha...nevertheless, i got a maroon pair in my quarantine tank but dont dare to put into my main tank cos once in....dont think i can keep any other clown....think back...i am a nemesis to true per and ocellaris....wahahahaha...and a clown....

hopefully i can fulfill my dream to keep a pair of true per and blk ocellaris. Hehe.

get ur water stable b4 stocking up.
