  • Cichlid death

    My male Taiwan reef cichlid died today for reasons unknown. The other fish all look very healthy and lucky enough I am pretty sure that the larger of my two females are holding so I hope I got one more spawn out of him. Now I have to find another adult taiwan reef cichlid.

      No torn fins or scales missing or anything. I was told he looked totally normal except for the absence of life. There is only one truly aggressive fish in the tank but even he isn't overly aggressive just occasional chasing.
