    Oh yeah....he was definitely unhealthy. Looked like he hadn't eaten in months. I feed the tank a veggie/meat mix and suppliment with algae strips. I think he had worms or a parasite. This pic actually made the tang look fat compared to what he was before he died. Kinda frustrating to watch.

    Sorry for the loss, John. Maybe you need something else bright yellow to replace it?

    That's a good idea. I like wrasses. My Red Coris Wrasse just died about three weeks ago (have had a not so good run). I'll look into that next week when I actually have a day off.
