Sorry for your loss, I just saw what happened after I replied. My angels seemed to waste away in a matter of a couple of hours too. I was told it is a species specific bacteria that only effects large species angels. Maybe this might be so with the CBB as well. If so, if you can get the fish out ASAP and treat it with anti biotic, they will come through. I was told sometimes you need to treat the 2-3 times until the build an immunity to the bacteria on their own. I thought the same thing about what you think is killing your CBBs... but my hunting and research has turned me to see it was more then likely a bacterial infection that killed my fish.
I'm not saying this might be so in your case, but it might be worth looking into a little more. |

Very sad. I have heard somewhere that Butterfly's mate for life and if the pair is broken up for whatever reason then the mate is doomed. If this is true then I wonder how many of these fish die of a "broken heart". Is there any difference in survival if you get them when they are still really small? say before they would have had a chance to pair bond.

sorry for your loss
 I am so sorry for your loss. Animals are wonderful creatures..and they can amaze us with things we would and could never imagine. I find it amazing that during his death the other one was continuously by his side (or her side)..but he/she knew that the other one was sick. Thats one great wonder of nature right there! |
