I'll have to try that. Thanks for the suggestion.

On a side note, the foxface died and not sure what exactly got him. Now I'm afraid to add anything to the tank and contemplating if I should pull out my old 10gallon fw tank and turn it into a quarantine tank for the two clowns and cleaner wrasse.

Sad time though.

Sorry to hear that, I'm a first time reefer, getting my tank setup next month.

Um, 34 gallon tank is way too small for a yellow tang and foxface. They're probably dying from stress.

And putting your yellow tang into a 2 gallon container will do thing but kill it.

you shouldn't get large species fish for such a small tank

Yep I am aware 34g is small for a tang, however it wasn't planned(fish was given to me as it was going to die in tank with two 10" + tangs) besides the fish was only 1.5-2" at max, so for the time being I think it was ok.

And I had no choice in regards to putting him into a 2g... It was the only thing I could set up as a qt in a very short time.

By the time I moved him there, the fish was on its side, so the last thing he was going to do was swim around. I just need to know what disease that was in order to make sure it doesn't spread to the dt.
