It is the first fish that died in months so I am not panicked. The water tested fine so who knows why it died. They can cost as much as $100 each fully grown but I bought 4 of them from a local guy and not a store for $20 each. My days of spending big money on cichlids or plecos is over. I buy them only when they are on sale and when they are small to let them grow with the tank.
