List of fish that usually died suddenly

文章: 2537

I have encountered some kind of fish that appear healthy and eat normally today but will die suddenly tomorrow without an obvious reason. They are -
- Clownfish
- Coral Beauty Angelfish
- Eibl's Angelfish
- Emperor Angelfish
- Powder Blue Tang
- Powder Brown Tang

Do you have similar experience with other fish?

I read from some America authors that they also encountered some fish that were supposed to be hardy but died rather mysteriously. They compiled a list of fish similar to the above list. They suspected that it was due to collection and transport problems. Therefore I want to ask local hobbyists whether they have same experience and a list of problematic fish can be compiled. New hobbyist will know that the death of these fish is not due to their fault. They can then avoid buying such fish. These fish were not chased and attacked by other fish in the tank. They just ate normally for a few weeks and then died suddenly.

There is report that some large angelfish like French Angelfish and Koran Angelfish can survive in aqurium for more than 20 years. Flame Angelfish should survive for a few years. Other smaller fish shuld last at least 1 to 2 years.

The above list of fish can only survive a few weeks.

One more fish that can be added to the list is Singapore Angelfish. They also die suddenly.

Large Angelfish types generally last a long time, especially french, grey, blue mask + many others. I even had Regal before and it ate well before ich claimed her life. I now have a majestic (馬鞍 is >300 days) and she was badly beaten when first introduced but after several days was chasing food. I feel the keys are 1) keep few fishes; or 2) keep a lot of fishes so they have no clear target to attack.
Juv emperior (藍圈仔) needs very peaceful environment and try not to stir the sand.

As for small angelfishes, I also feel that they are not difficult to feed as I had flame before and ate like pig. I have failed 3 coral beauty (石美人) before but now I have one also eating like a pig (5 meals a day). The only difference is that now I have a play tank with many LR and crevices so the surving one could feel comfortable when first introduced. Small angelfishes are easy to keep so long you have few tankmates to contest with them and many places to hide. Singapore angelfish (天皇仙) is definitely difficult to keep - Sure !

As for butterfly fishes, I think many of us knows there are several that are almost impossible for aquarium even reef tank. But I had several butterfly fishes that I was lucky to keep them for almost 2 years (網蝶, 月眉蝶, 雙印 etc).

My feeling is that most fishes are not picky on food, just that they often are so uncomfortable with the congested conditions of domestic aquarium. Sudden change in water condition is another killer, transportation, method of catching all taking toll on their chances of survival.

Similarly, only around 1 in every 10 birds caught survive their way to overseas countries (where we could buy them in the market). Surpising isn't it ?

Never kept one like this before, but it is a difficult butterfly and should be left in the wild.

wwlworld, you are right.

I love angelfish very much. Many articles recommended that they should be fed with green vegetables. I have tried some vegetables but it seems that they are not interested. I can only feed dry food with high vegetable content and vitamins enrichment to them. Do you feed angelfish with green vegetables?

Thank you iczfirz, should I cook the white cabbage first? I have tried raw white cabbage before. I chopped it into small pieces of the size like dry food. My angelfish picked them up but spitted them out immediately.

eddie, how do you prepare your vegetable? I tried feeding my fish with white cabbage last night but they did not eat it at all. I tied the vegetable to a magnetic cleaner and fixed them at hte side of the tank. My Queen, juvenile Koran, Flame, Black Velvet Angelfishes did not eat it .
