I am fully trapped in one problem...please resolve it.
yesterday, i have added one Naso Tang, one spotted sweat lips fish and 4 small percula clown fishes.
Already i have one yellow tang in my 90 gallons tank.
from yesterday till today, my all small clown fishes are died but Naso, sweat lips and yellow tang are perfectly fine, they are eating and grazing. yesterday they were bit stressed due to new place but today they are all happy.
please advise why these clowns were died , though percula clowns are hard fishes and my other fishes are sensitive but they are perfectly alright ...TOUCH WOOD.

2 dead bodies of clownfish, i didnt find in my tank and 2 dead bodies i found in the morning today, which i have taken out from tank.
i have sump system. today i also found one thing that salinity was bit higher then i added some fresh water in it in order to stabilize the salanity.

This is a fairly new tank.....he added a yellow tang....and ignored all advice given to him about his next additions.....so after having the YT for maybe 10 days....he adds ANOTHER tang...a sweetlips (which need LARGE TANKS) and 4 NOT 2....4 clowns...all at the same time
Need I say more.....

Meowzer this guy is a troll, please block this thread and his others. your right he was told after numerous tries buy a lot of people. He added 6 fish to a 2 week old tank what an idiot. The LFS have found a fatted calf.

Mr Limpid,
whatever ur name is ? please be in limit...........i want to prove the world that i can keep sensitive fishes in FWLR tank..............where is the theory that "start your aquarium with clowns and chormies?"......... I started with yellow Tang initially which is my big success............if Tangs, sweat lips are cheaper in price then people will start thier aquarium with these fishes not with damsels and clowns............I agree that angels and butterflies need very old running tank...but for tangs and spotted sweet lips which also belongs from clown family, it is also strong.....
dont worry, i will show you my tank with all these fishes....u Maricon.......
you should have asked me the size of these fishes which i have added in my new tank but u didnt ask.......the fishes size are small thats y i kept 3 fishes till now.... why clowns were died because of heavy salanity which i have made it in level....

Congratulations, it sounds like you figured it out yourself (heavy salinity). I guess you do not need anymore help.

its not my intention to kill the fish....New Experiment always teaches the person..... Why u guys follow old experiments, go and apply some new experiments due to which people will follow you............................have you ever experienced yellow tang as first fish in your aquarium? Yellow tang is a beginner fish and if your tests are OK then you may keep it..... behind everything, there is logical science......I am sorry to be rude with Mr Limpid........
NJBillyV, dont follow the people, make your own so that people could follow you..........
Now I have NASO tang ,sweet lips fish and yellow tang, 85 percent people were advising me not to keep these fishes right now......but i want to do something different.
if these fishes can resist in my tank then why not others.....but i also keep my words that slow and steady win the race.......
Again i would say that if your fish are well quarantined and your skimmer works perfect then no disease or mishap will occur

Since you used my name, I'm forced to respond. You say you are trying new experiment, sorry you are not many others have done what you are doing and failed, so you are not new. Yellow tang are beginners fish, not from this site does it say that. You weren't rude i was. Naso & Yellow tangs and sweetlips do not belong in 1 month and two day old tank or in a 90gal tank. If you did any research of your own you would know that. Why do you want them to resist your tank, they are suppose to thrive in our tanks. Your word of slow and steady? You added 7 fish in less than a weeks time, WHAT. You say what, well quarantined and your skimmer works, then no disease. Where did you QT anything? Try to answer any of these question logically.

Dear Limpid,
Am i failed to keep the yellow tang in first instance? Am I failed to keep 1 Naso and 1 sweet lips and 4 clown fishes together?
well as i told you that due to high salinity, my clowns were died and now i kept control on salinity.
I admit my mistake that i shouldnt have kept all these fishes at same time. Atleast my Naso and sweet lips are safe (TOUCHWOOD) because i am more worried about these fishes rather than clowns......
sometimes i dont control myself . i am not patient at all..how I passed my one month without fish in DP tank that is my big resistance.
i again say, slow and study win the race.
Sweet lips belong to clown family and it is hard as clows fish and i m surprise to see when hard fish was died and sensitive fishes are alive.
I have one 30 liters quarantine tank in which only filter/heater and light are installed. for 15 days, i kept those fishes in that quarantine tank then i moved them to DP tank.

Plectorhinchus chaetodonoides is the scientific family Spotted Sweetlips and Amphiprion percula is the scientific family for Percula Clown fish. They are not related other they both are fish. The sweetlips will grow in wild to a length of 2'-5" figure in our tanks only about 80% which is 2'-0" how worried are you now. I say good day!

You are mistaken to believe that the Sweetlips and Clownfish belong to the same family. Other than both being fish they are very very very different.
