Well I dont know why I'm asking because I know the answer.
Some of you know about my MYSTERY WRASSE - killer of one 1 blue star leopard wrasse, 1 radiant wrasse, 1 yellow coris wrasse, 1 black leopard wraase, 1 lineatus wrasse, 1 chevron tank, I watched as it ate 1 skunk cleaner shrimp literally within 10 seconds of my adding it to the tank, and the other cleaner shrimp was missing the next day, almost killed the christmas wrasse I added within a day before I captured it and gave it someone else, and suspect in the deaths of a few other gobies as well - has passed on tonight.
I was doing a water change tonight. Something freaked the guy out and it came FLYING out of the tank while I was siphoning, grazed my head, and BAM! smacked on the ground. I had it picked up with a net and back in the tank within 20 secs, AND IT WAS DEAD ALREADY!! What the heck! Must have died on impact. Have you ever heard of something so crazy?
How can a fish die in 20 seconds?
I have to say the mystery wrasse dying makes me mad, but not too sad. It has killed SO MANY FISH and has been a terror in my tank. Of course, I'd still didnt want it to die. I had no intention of putting it my the new tank once it's set up, but I was going to keep it in the prop tank anyway.
