Hello all.

I picked up a 4 inch dussemieri, 5 inch naso, and 4 inch powder blue on Thursday.

They all seemed healthy, and I added them to my 75 qt. No interest in food the first three days, I left for work yesterday, and all seemed find swimming around.

Came home, and powder blue is on the bottom , just flapping his fins. I gently lifted him off bottom, he swam sideways a bit, before hitting the bottom. I left for an hour, trying to think what I should do, by then , he was dead.

No evidence of ich, velvet, flukes, fighting etc on him.

Its a 75 gallon tank, running for 4 months, plenty of flow via strong return pump and 1000 gph power head. no rock or sand, just pvc to hide in. Currently no medication in the water. 78 degrees, 1.020 sg.

How did you acclimate them?
