Question
i had two dragon fish that died at the same time... like within hours of each other... i was wondering if maybe my 3 angels 1 shark 1 goldfishand 1 suckerfish had anything to do with that because i wanted more but i dont want them to get hurt... can you help me?

Answer
Hello,

If you often saw you other fish picking on your dragon fish, or saw open wounds on their body then the other fish may have been the cause of the death. If not, it was a disease or a water quality problem.

I recommend checking your water for nitrites and ammonia. Either could cause fish death. I also recommend observing the rest of your fish closely over the next couple days to ensure that they do not show any symptoms of disease.

I hope this helps.

Regards,
