really sucks! Strange thing is it went from healthy to dead in about a hours time. Large Clarkii clown that was in my tank for 4 days, eating, swimming normal, living in bubble tip, and this morning when I fed them it cruised around and ate. Left to the office to turn in paperwork and when I got back home it was dead in the corner of the tank being munched on by hermits. All the others are still fine, water params. are normal, no clue what happened? Is it possible it became victim to lion fish sting? No other ideas but maybe someone else has an idea?

I lost a really healthy green bird wrasse once to a lionfish sting. So that is a possibly. Maybe the clarkii picked a fight with the wrong fish.

Yep, my same though exactly. I think your lion had something to do with it..

geeze! i had a lawnmower go down, left for work one morning and then came home 9 hours later, he was on his side, have a dwarf fuzzy in there with him, they had shared a tank previously, i was trying not to believe that it was the dwarf even though the water wasn't to blame. shame... he might have been a lowly algae eater, but i liked him!
