Anyone know what could be the problem? I found hiding under the rocks almost dead. Her fins are quite ragged.

I took her out of the DT and put her in a small tank, all the other fish appear to be okay.

Maybe you need a camera on the tank so you can see what is going on while you're away. No one could have convinced me my yellow tang was eating my acans either until I sat there for about 2 hrs and watched.

The likely candidate for the bullying will be sold soon.

Who was it? Was this in the same tank as your Gem Tang? Is there 1 bully jacking with both?
The Gem Tang is still in QT, it was either the Sohal Tang or the Clarkii Clown Fish (most likely). The Clarkii is a more recent addition than the Sohal. The Sohal has been in the DT for over a year while the Clarkii has only been there a few months.

Are you sure it is the clown? Was the Sohal in the tank before the Regal?
I added my Regal and BlueFace afterward and the Sohal was relentless to the point I had to remove them into a separate QT and the BlueFace is the largest of them all.

The Regal was the first fish in the tank, the Sohal was added months later.

Did you lose him? :( Man, sorry for the loss. I am treating mine as well (Thanks to Master Jedis - Humblefish & Reefaholic) and hopefully, he recovers soon.
