Well he seemed like he was doing alright but then started acting funny and my coral banded shrimp took him under his arms and now my porcelin crab is making light work of him. (actually pretty slowly) It was a sad day for me.

Crabs are opportunistic omnivores, they will eat whatever they can get.
I am soooo sorry for your loss. I just lost a pair of clowns to faulty equipment (heater) and know how hard it is. Funny how we get attached to those little guys!

I had the same thing happen to my male true perc. It was really sad. I found him after he had been there for about 10 hours. I hoped he'd make it but he didn't. I should have pulled him out right away and given him the proper death.
Now I have a pair of GSM. It's just not the same. I'll have to get another pair. Maybe a onyx pair.
