Kevnjeep July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 So since I started my tank I keep loosing small fish. I've never had this issue before my new tank 1.5 years old. Now my yellow tang looks like something has bee. Eating its fins. My black ice clown, cromis, 2 purple fire fish and yellow wrasse all are very healthy. And have been in my tank since the first few months and never had an issue. Due to the yellow tang fin issue I need to find the culprit. The fish I stated above 2 cleaner wrasse 2 peppermint shrimp Snails Thats all that I "have" in my tank. I brought all the live rock from my old tank. So if something came in it would have been on a Coral. I've looked at night, during the day, lights on, lights off and still don't see anything and its only a 120 gallon tank. Anyone have any ideas on how to find this sucker before I loose more money and fish !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epleeds July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 It's really hard. I was lucky enough to find mine and speard it. U could set a soda bottle trap at night with a silverside or two and hope he takes the bait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YHSublime July 26, 2015 Share July 26, 2015 Pint glass diagonally in the sand with food in the bottom. They can climb in, but not out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
