So my last rabbitfish just died about 3 days ago. Did a water change and went out and bought a new rabbitfish. Woke up this morning, found his laying on the sand bed. He is still alive, trying to swim and he is still breathing.
All of my param's are in check, so why is it that my rabbitfish keep dying. Every other fish is doing extremely well. Absolutely no other problems with anything in the tank except for the rabbits. I have a feeling I will lose this one also within the next couple hours unless something miracolous happens. Anybody have any insight on why my rabbits keep dying. They appear healthy, eat well and then I wake up one morning to find them struggling for life.

Please help, I'm tired of losing rabbitfish and the money I keep putting into them.
