Need help, new yellow tang laying on its side, doesn’t look too good

Yes, strange. Obviously a very serious issue, but without some other symptoms, there isn’t really anything to go on. Like - if you come across a person collapsed in the road - could be a number of issues.

Thanks, very strange I agree. It just passed away ((

That’s about 7 years in captivity, not bad, maybe “old age”, I believe the average is 5-10 years in captivity.

Wow 5-10 only? I thought they can live 15-20 years in general (in the wild or captivity).
