The death of my Purple Queen Anthias


I bought a Purple Queen Anthias not researching it first since I assumed it would be like any the other Anthias. When I received it it wouldn't eat anything (Mysis, Brine, cyclops, and even soaked it in garlic and it still wouldn't eat it) for 3 days it didn't even bother taking a bite. So I made a thread to see if someone can take on the challenge of taking care of it since it's beyond my experteese and offer me frag in return since it costed me $50.00 for it.
Thread I made is here http://www.tcmas.org/forums/showthread.php?t=694
Was looking fine until I checked this morning and it wasn't looking so healthy and in the afternoon I saw it take it's last breath of water before it twitched and died.

Well since I had a died $50.00 fish................



j/k

My hermit crab was hungry and always hungry so I figure tonight I'll give it a fine dining on a $50.00 fish... enjoy..

sorry for your loss

I too could only keep my anthias happy for a month or so then I'm searching for them. I attempted to keep them a couple diff. times, boy were they a expensive lesson
