What happened??

Brook?

That’s what they possibly thought about the goby

Not really sure. The mandarin wasn’t acting right the first day so went to get it medicine and tried to treat it and then it died. That was Tuesday…this morning woke up and both clown and tang were dead. Checking parameters again right now but I don’t think it was parameters

Kinda looks like they may have had Brook. But I’m no expert. Sorry about the fish..

Did you QT them?

User Avatar @Vast 1y

It’s all good…tank is only 2 months old and I know it happens just sucks. No I didn’t QT them since I don’t have another tank to QT them.

Well if it is Brook, you’ll need to get it out of the tank before adding anything else. I’d invest in a little 10 gallon tank for QT. I have a 10 gal for qt with a cheap $20 amazon power head and Hob filter. Works pretty good! Use copper or hypo salinity method depending on fish. Just a thought though!

Sad to see. Could be brook. Here’s a post I read recently about it https://www.reddit.com/r/ReefTank/s/XJaZeauVJF

Yea possibly just not really sure how it just showed up. I haven’t added anything into the tank in over a month and I think Brook almost works immediately. Could be the LFS I bought it from…usually I buy everything from a different store and this was the first time buying two fish from a different store. Just sucks to be experiencing out of nowhere.
