My fish are dying-help

I have a 55g with an emperor 400 and a 400gph powerhead and some rockwork

My fish are a yellow tang and three green chromis

The fish I try to add ALWAYS die within a month- usually a week.

The fish Ive tried to add are TR ocellaris and damsels and a

could the tang be stressing them out enough to kill them? they always seem to get white spots and swim in the current until they die-particularly the clowns

The last batch of clowns (2) I added died with red spots on their bodies.

Im stumped

I have a 10g quarantine tank- yet to cycle- on 2nd week
 
It helps to post your exact water perameters as well, the number one cause of fish getting sick is poor water quality or overly stressed.
 
antitang, you of all people should know that theyre dying because of the demon :Angel: of a yellow tang you have ;)

(you people should see this tang. it uses its spine on its tail to swipe at:
1. its own reflection
2. the Mag- Float
3. the other fish
4. antitang's hand
5. anything else it sees)

post your water parameters. you say you have perfect water, but.... we shall see....

you killed blue damsels **** i have not been able to do that yet i would take a liter of your water down to you LFS before you buy any new fish better to spend the 30 dollors to get your water tested thent o kill 200 dollors worth of fish
 
no, the lfs said I was fine 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites.
It does seem to be funny to me when I see the yellow tang trying to kill its own reflection. Maybe the yellow tang is causing the other fish to lose the will to live.
