Well. .the bangai cardinal I bought as a small juvenile tank raised from a local reefer bit the bucket some time last night/this morning. He was really lodged well under a rock.
The previous day I noticed he was not really aggressive going after food and I dumped extra food in the tank for him, which he ate. I noticed some of his tail fins were frayed recently: I didn't see anyone picking on him.
Normal lifespan of a bangai is 5-6 years. I can't remember when I bought him, but I think I might have had him for at least 3-4 years.
Hate those sad mysterious fish deaths! I've never seen anyone go after him so unless the green serpent, which is not that big, went nuts. Don't know what happened.
