The first fish KIA today

Yesterday I purchased 2 heniochuses, both relativly small and have been in the LFS for over a month. When I put them in the tank, they seemed to get along (with the bigger picking on the smaller one). When I went to check on my tank this morning I found the bigger one sucked by my AC 70 powerhead at its head. I'm guessing when it was "sleeping" it slowly drifted closer and closer to the inlet and wham, got sucked in by the head and couldn't breathe. Out of the two he was the more lively one. Oh well.......

oh man....that sux dude....both of my heniochus died within a week of getting them. I should have been prepared and did more research before taking them home. Oh well...good luck with the other one. Gonna go buy another one? **** mines looked so cool swimming as a pair.

Yeah I got the filter box thing that I'm using. I just got another one so they should do fine.
