I think they look marvelous. But I have no idea why I can't seem to keep one for any length of time...

1st - completely disappeared within 2 weeks of being in DT (after TTM) - serious, no idea where it went, didn't jump, can't find in sump, return lines, nothing...
2nd - found dead within 1 week after being put in DT (after TTM)
3rd - died during CP treatment
4th - found dead half way through TTM
5th - found dead within 1 week of being put in observation tank (after TTM)

I'm not sure what's more upsetting - I can't seem to keep flame angels or that after the time/effort/(water) of TTM - to have them just heel over and die when put in a tank that should be more comfortable for them than during TTM

*rant complete*
 
They should be hardier. What's your acclimation protocol? Are they all from the same store?
