when stressed or should they die w/o you knowing, they can release toxins that you may or may not ever be able to remove again from your tank...there has been reports of TOTAL tank die off except maybe for a couple of inverts due to that

i'm no expert by any means on cowfish, but i can tell you that yellow tailed damsel can be a bully and stress your cowfish, especially if the damsel was there first. good luck with the rest of it though. <img src="graemlins//confused.gif" border="0" alt="[confused]" />
