I have had some trouble keeping clownfish in my tank. All the levels are good and all my other fish are doing good but every time I put clownfish in they don't last long. The last two I had looked healthy and they both eat but both of them died in the same night. Im not going to get any more because I dont want them to die. Whats going on??????????

I would assume that at 7 months you do have other fish in there and i would hope that you used drip acclimation for all of the fish you introduced. With If it is only a problem with the clownfish, if you got them at the same time from an LFS most likely they arent both female, so i would want to believe it is some form of disease lurking around in your tank. Look up brooklynella pics online and see if your clownfish looked like that before they died.
