My fish are being slowly killed off. at first i assumed my snow flake eel was the problem, but could find no bite marks. next i blamed the large Condylactis anemone that lives at the far end of my 180.woke this morning to two dead fish again. My blue hippo and my yellow tang,both large fish, again no marks. I have lost a box fish, flame angle, mandarin gobie, my two tangs this morning and just walked in and found my brown brittle star eating my high fin gobie. all fish were healthy and plump, swam and were very active. checked all parameters this morning and all were good. all these fish wee purchased at a young age and were at least 2 1/2 years old except the box and high fin. this all began around December of 2010. I have not added any live rock in over 2 years. took whole system down at the end of december to move from ohio to sc and set up new 180 tank with the original Eco-system from my 90 in ohio in February.I am at a loss as to what is killing these fish. any thoughts would be welcomed.

my guess is a parasite, maybe one you cant see?

Maybe something was poured in accidentally or while you were not looking? Are all of your parameters in check?
