Dying box fish

[new2dis]

Not sure what caused the mark she has but started out.hiding for couple of days now just laying in the tank.http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/11/ny8ububu.jpg

Can she be saved?

That's unfortunate. Boxfish are notoriously difficult to keep. If possible, quarantine it. They'll release toxins if they die.

Have a tank. Had her for 2 or 3 months. Really great fish. Looks like someone nipped her tail and put that mark on her not sure what happened

once it stop eating and moving I suggest you toss it. I've been through a few, and I didn't take a chance when they where about to die.

Humanly kill it by putting it in a small thing of water in the freezer.
