Default Re: New fish dying

im not sure whats killing your fish, but i have had fish tanks all my life....fresh and salt....this is my first time with live coral...but in all of them it seems green chromis dont take to the shock of being transported well....i know people have had great success with them, but i bring them into the tank slowly...probablly over a total of 3 hours using the drip method. just because in the past i have had trouble keeping them alive...and wouldn't you know it, im down to 2 chromis left...all my other fish are fine...even my starfish are doing great as well as a very small hippo tang......i would say look around your tank for a hitchhiker or it could very well be that the stress of a new tank and the trip to it, got to them..
