 |
|
Well it seems that one of my brothers clown fish is welll..... dying. I noticed yesterday that he was struggling to breath for air and hiding under the coral in his tank. I told my brother, and he tried to feed them thinking that they were starving. Well, that wasnt the case at all. Today he is no where to seen by the naked eye. I think I am going to have to do some serious searching for the thing..  |

I suggest you become a member at a reef tank forum. I'm a member at reeflounge.com, and really enjoy it there. It probaby has to do with toxic ammonia, nitrite or nitrates in your tank. CFheck that site out for more details, don't have time to go through the whole process at the moment. Sorry,

| Sadly, the fishy died. My brother said he prob died of age since he has had him as long as he had the tank about 2 yrs. |

| Sorry to hear about that. Clownfish do live longer than that, and heavy breathing isn't associated with old age, though. |

I agree, He said he wasnt even sure how old the fish was, since he bought it off someone 2 yrs ago. Who knows? Anyway he also told me that a person he gets his fish tank info from is getting rid of thier fish and going for a predator tank. This ought to be interesting  |
