lionfish zapped a kole tang?

[dave green]

yesterday, the kole tang was a happy fella, eating hair algae and more...

today he's in the back, laying on his side hating life and breathing really hard.

no ick or anything, and I haven't gotten to him to check for sting marks.

chance for survival? or should I expedite his trip to the big reef in the sky?

if he's not being picked on by anything I think there could be a chance. Can you not QT him?

Kole's don't fair very well a lot of times.. I have had 2 that have done the same thing.. Eating and swimming then bam! Crab food the next.

 

[dave green]

yup... crab food...

dangit!

Sorry for the loss
