Picked up a copperband butterfly from my LFS. was in their tanks with hypo salinity for a week or so. Brought home left in hypo for several more weeks. Raise it to match my tank salinity a week before moving the fish
Fish ate mysis with no trouble. I never used any meds in QT wasn't sure what would be best. And didnt want to do any harm to a healthy eater
After about 9 weeks I added to my DT where the fish still ate mysis with no trouble and lived for about 6 weeks.
I fed my fish one night and noticed that my CBB did not seem interested in the food. THe next day it was gone without a trace.
Not the first time something like this has happened to me (similar situtation with a clownfish back in august). But what would cause something like this to happen? Any way to prevent this in the future? On a side note I have several other fish that are healthy and fine in my DT. So I am assuming this is just a freak accident?
