Sixline dies and its sides are red?

i just bought a sixline wrasse about 3 days ago and it died today? all of my other fish that i nought are fine...so far.. the sixlines sides are red like it rubbed against something? what could have caused this? im clueless. i also had a little chromis in the tank that dies from the same thing, so i think that was about 2 weeks ago.

I bought the sixline twice and they all died about 1 month after I bought. All the other fish and coral are very happy in my tank. Finally, I find two reasons.

1. The size of the tank. My tank is 14g. it's too small for these guys. They like swimming.

2. the Worms. They like eating worms in the tank, but if the worm is too big.......

Hope that help.
