I lost my sixline about a week ago too. Weird to hear others as well. He was my oldest fish too, had him 8 years. Sort of a mixed bag of emotions, I did like him very much, but he was a mean fish to any newcomer, he also killed off a mandarin out of the blue. For any newcomer the only way to earn peace from him was to beat him up worse, then he'd leave that fish alone. So I can sort of see the other fish in the tank aren't broken up by the loss, but nevertheless, I'm sort of bummed out at the loss. Sorry to hear about yours guys losses too.

I wouldn't be too sad.. one of the worst things I have done in my reef keeping career was add a sixline

The fish was a terror, it would attack any new addition to the tank, it would take runs at me when I had my hands in the tank as well. I had my chance to remove it when it jumped out of the tank in front of me but I picked it up and put it back in.. still kick myself for that
