Last Friday I pick up a Yellow Wrasse and a Christmas Wrasse and placed them in quarantine. I was very happy to see that neither one showed any aggression towards the other but, notice the Yellow Wrasse had a concave belly so I made sure they had plenty of food. On Tuesday I did a water changed and started a copper treatment. On Thursday I notice that the Yellow Wrasse was laying on the bottom, I presumed the worst, so I went to remove him from the tank but he swam away. I notice that it had a red mark across its fore head but couldn't tell if it was internal bleeding or a bacteria infection. Then next day I found him dead. The Christmas Wrasse is still doing fine but I am worried the same may happen to him.
