    I'm so sad. I woke up this morning, To find my clown dead. I've had him for three years. He's been through all my mistakes and a tank change! It's amazing how attached you get to the fish in your tank! What a way to start my day

    Very sorry to hear. Im sure that over the next few days you will be thinking about what may have happened. Please share those thoughts with us so that it may delay someone else going through what we will all have to deal with eventually.

    Very sad. I had something similar happen about a month ago where one of my clowns passed as a result of over aggression from the other. They too were my first fish. :(

    No. He had been "hosting" my green rhodactis hairy mushroom lately. That's the only change. Everybody else is fine. New led lights about a month ago. No other changes
