RIP Maroon Clown
My Maroon Clown "Mandy" died this evening. When i woke up this morning i noticed that she looked really bad from getting into a fight with another fish. So i got out the flash light and noticed that my Chevron Tang was a little beat up looking. So i am thinking during the night they had a fight. She was looking better by afternoon so while i was at work my dad watched the tank closely to monitor her and she ended up dieing while at work. 
All the other fish besides the tang for right now look great.
Tim

I'm sorry to hear that, I get really attached to all my fish. I have a beat up maroon I raised from a tiny baby, he's about 5 inches long and very stout, is the "old man" of the tank and keeps every one in line, they have great personalities. I just lost a baby gold banded maroon to an outlaw anemone (BTA) that must've gotten hungry and ate his hosting clown.
I'm so sorry for your loss!
