sailfin death due to xenia?

[dahos]

So, my tank was being overrun by Pom Pom xenia. I decided to trim some back. For the next two days my tang was hiding and on the third day I woke up to a dead fish. Could the xenia have released enough toxin to kill him or was this just a coincidence?

I've taken out 100s at a time with no problems

Coincidence, the fact that the sailfin was in a 75g is much more of a contributing factor to the death of the fish then the Xenia

I am totally unaware of any connection.

Did you have an ammonia spike or other chemistry change?
