I put 10 dwarfs in my tank 3 months ago.
They died at a rat of one every 2 weeks untill all where dead.. Nothing else died.
The tank is a 55 gallon tank and set up for 4 years and many other fish are in there and nothing else died...Is there a desease like what effects Angels that effects them?? I'm puzzeled...
Any help?? I would like to put more in the tank.....I'm not new at this since I have other tanks..... And no problem..
 
10 is an awful lot--these guys tend to be territorial, and while a pair will usually be okay in a 15+ tank, I wouldn't put any more than that together in anything but a 100+ gallon tank. 10 in a 55 probably resulted in some serious territory issues, and this stressed the fish out. In addition, the sudden increase in the bio-load from adding 10 fish at once may have caused a mini-cycle, further stressing them.

I would consider adding MAYBE 4--get a pair of males and a pair of females if you can find them, depending on what else is in the tank.
