    Yeah two tangs that are recommended for a 180g minimum sized tank that eat the same stuff.... the regal probably bullied the naso to death. I had a tiny powder blue do that to a couple of substantially bigger tangs.

    sorry for your loss, reading about stray currents arent you actually creating a connection when you ground your tank? i mean if i understand the concept of stray currents correctly it would be like holding a high voltage line while sitting on a wooden stool feet of the ground. the electricity is not discharged but simply runs through you. the second you release this current to the ground is when you get zapped. THEREFORE are you not creating this connection when you ground your tank?
