Stress kills

Re the reply in Welcome about the stress activating protozoans which kill - I do believe now why my angel died. :(

I had put a pair of rainbow kribensis in the tank and they did bully him a little initially - he was a peaceful soul and bothered no body. I think the stress triggered other things for he had an outbreak of fungus (one small spot) and I treated that with salt bath and time out in hospital tank. He recovered and was his normal self. A couple of weeks later I made the mistake of returning him to the community tank. He died within the week with no signs of illness.

In my opinion kribenisis are not for a peaceful community tank. Pretty n all as they are.

Another lesson learned.
