Bummer

Well I come home from out of town over the weekend and notice that my 3 year old 4" foxface is gone, he must have died while I was away...Bummer

What I want to know is will there be any problems with this fish dying in my tank? It is a 90 gallon sps reef that has been setup for about 6 years. I went ahead and did a 10% water change last night, but I am worried that a decomposing fish may do damage to my water quality.

Did you get the fish out?

[heartbreak7]

Nope, got home and all that was left was skeleton, I have one huge serpent star, cleaner shrimp, few large nassarius, and a good bristle worm population that probably finished it up. I was just worried about any decomposition happening in the tank that the cleanup crew could not take care of.

Thanks

If all you found was a skeleton, sounds like your crew took care of it. Just to be safe though, I would run some tests.

ya, definitely do some tests, and maybe another small water change, and run some carbon just to be sure

also, RIP foxface, sorry to hear of your loss
