If something stressed that guy out mortally there's a good chance others are being subjected to the same pressure.

What asylumdown said but:

Both a powder blue tang and an A.nigricans (looks like a powder brown tang but has no orange on it) will die for no apparent reason most often taking a few of their tankmates with them.
