If you were an 8"+ Regal Angelfish...

They other two that died were under 3", still had the tail spots.

One was eating fresh hatched baby brine, died in a week.

The other was eating frozen brine also but still died. Not sure why.
Was treating with Prazi but seen no signs as to why either died.


The first one that died never did appear to be "right", she did a lot of hiding and just didnt act quit normal.

The second one was doing really well though, was a bit suprised at that one.

Unfortunately, I have watched 3 starve to death also. Someday I will get one that loves me.

Guess that's the reason they're called the "swimming dead". Death due to 'not eating' and 'bulge' drives me nuts.

sorry to hijack but i heard you mentioned about dipping the fish in prazi pro, i was also told to do that as well with triple the dosage for 30-45 mins. have u tried that and prove it doesn`t work? do you think you can direct me to some readings? thanks

I would try the angel formular or get some sponge. Mine pecked on sponge to begin with. Good luck

Tried three times and failed three times too. All different sizes too. Seen them peck at some shellfish but nothing major. I'm going to try again this year and if I fail again I think I'll call it quits and get a pair of juvi Bluefaces.

Damn it-missed your fish died!
Sorry to hear.

The only one I ever had that even attempt to peck at food, jumped out of the qt tank to its death. He was #2.
