Hello all, experienced freshwater,newbie saltwater. 26 bowfront,cycling almost a month with 3 black striped damsels.Recently added 2 yellow tailed damsels that both died within 48 hours. ph about 8.5. The plan for this tank was hopefully for a clown fish (yes, a Nemo), anemanome and a yellow tang.Am i off base trying to house these 3 species? I cant make it to Uncle Neds till about mid-november so i thought i would try here to see about any pre-maintanence to do. Thanks for help.

I suspect the fish...
not the fish keeper
...were the yellow tail damsels in premium condition when you got them?
did the striped damsels simply kill them?

After my phone conversation with Uncle Neds today, my striped damsels may be quite defensive and killed the yellow tails! Hardy for cycling, bute very mean....
