    so about 4 days ago i bought a fu manchu lionfish, sixline, and a tomato clown.
    so 2 day after i bought it the sixline vanishes. then 1 day after the sixline is gone my tomato clown is dead.
    my water parameters are all good.

    Could be too many fish too fast caused stress on your system. You should always wait at least two weeks between adding a new fish.

    I would completely agree with that though, but at least the one that's harder to find made it through.

    Actually believe it or not lionfish can be hardy and take alot of abuse. Well besides getting them to eat lol.
