Sorry to hear about that Jon. I've had that happen to me too several times. Active and then dead. Heart attack maybe? We'll never know. Is she the mother to my juvies? If so they are doing great.

Jon, I can toss one of my females in when I send Jan's dots if you like.

Don't be surprised if you have to pull the eggs.

Sorry to hear that. I hate it when a favorite fish just ups and dies for no reason.

I have 2 and when I feel like it I'll take pics and you can choose between the 2.  I don't suppose you'd want my left over male, would you?

The fish are good but if they are that stupid I don't want them.  they're not important enough to me to bother pulling.  I've pulled from my HBXBlue Silvers because I'm working toward a goal with them.  I will pull from the Blue MarbleXBlue Clown female pair, too.  I don't have much of a market for my fish so I do what fulfills my desires.

Take your pick.  The first is a proven female.  The second hangs around most of the time with another fish that appears obviously male.

I know she looks kinda like a male but she hangs with another fish that look even more male.  No spawning that I've notice so no proof.

Lets plan on Monday the 10th for shipping.  The dots will still be small but they should be bit enough to handle it.  I'll see if I can't snap a pic of the dots.
