I have read that the most common way to kill a linkia is to add topoff water too fast or near them. Similar to a std sand sifter they are tuff to keep goin. Perhaps with a refuge and freq sand additions. I have one and it looks healthier than when I bought it... kind of regret that now. The fish store insisted on bringing them in for me and they were dead w/in a day. I told them if they were going to bring any more in - keep it in a bucket w an airstone and add 1/2 cup water every hr. that was quite a few weeks ago but I know I am not out of the woods yet. acclimated for 3hrs. I guess time will tell.
