Me and my boyfriend are fairly new to saltwater fish tank owners. We have a yellow tang, coral beauty, two clownfish, and two shrimp. All our levels are normal. Yesterday morning we woke up to find one of our nemo's dead. Then yesterday we got a lawnmower blenny and a 3 striped damsel. I heard the 3 striped damsel's can be aggressive but it is very little and we watched it most of yesterday and it didn't seem to be aggressive towards the other fish at all. But this morning we woke up to find our second nemo dead. Could this have anything to do with the first one dying? I have no idea what could of happened.. Help!!

There are so many possibilities for your Nemos' death, so we will need much more information. What size tank, filtration, parameters (s.g., ammonia, nitrates, pH, temperature, etc)? When were the other fish added? Were they quarantined? How often do you top-orr? change water? Once we know enough about your system we will try to help you. BTW-I hope you don't come to hate damsels as much as I do.

Unfortunately if you had your clowns for sometime and this just happened after you added new fish. There is a good chance that's what did it. I love marine fish. But mixing them is a total crap shoot. People saw clowns aggressive,yet mine don't bother a thing. We can give u guide lines but nothing is for sure
