Right now I am down a couple fish, I had a couple mid sized tangs, 2 large clowns, a large melanarus wrasse, 2 green chromis and one anthia. I have about 3 to 400 hundred snails, copepods and manly SPS with one very large frogspawn in a 75 gallon tank. I feed moderately and feed the tank copepods, rotifers and phytoplankton. So moderate load and a moderate input of organics.
No matter what I add my tank just eats it up. I have been running a large tunze skimmer and it has been dialed all the way back for months.
Unfortunately I quarantine every thing for at least a month before I add it to the tank. I had a nice foxface in the quarantine and after 3 weeks he kicked the bucket. I am waiting for another one spot foxface and a captive bred coral beauty from J&L. Also trying to get other fish but am very particular about what I want in the tank.
Adding fish is not going to be the short term solution.
