My brother has a 38 gal saltwater tank that has been setup since January. He has 3 Green Chromasis, a firefish, a horseshoe crab, and some small hermit crabs. Every clownfish we put in the tank dies - he has had 3 False Percula clownfish and one black percula clownfish - some have lived for a month or two, the last 3 have died within a few days . The other fish are perfectly fine and active.
The tank has live rock, but no coral, it's not a reef tank. The only thing I can think that might have killed the black percula he just added was that he added more base rock at the same time, is that okay or not?
Any suggestions? He's only 12 and it is expensive for him to keep replacing 14 dollar fish.
