1 green chromis now
2 cardnials
1 scarlet cleaner
1 red linkia (sp)
1 emeral crab

how was the fish acting before the lights went off? How long did it take him to die?
What size tank do you have?
Are you sure your levels are perfect? Test kits have experation dates and give you the wrong reading.
Are any of the fish picking on him?
Touch the lights while the their on, or turn them on/off manually. Do you feel a shock? (salt built-up can cause an electric current in the water, although, it didn't see to bother my fish, I found out about the same day and was able to clean the lights).
