I have had my 225g tank for about a year all parameters are normal just my phosphates are a little high (salinity 1.022, ph 8.0,) and had two lion fish that both have died in about 2 months apart (very large lions for about 1 1/2 years) they just stop eating and died a month later all my other fish are fine here is a list of my other fish

1huma huma trigger , 1 sail fin tang, 1 yellow tang, 1 large emperor angel, 1 harlequin tusk,1 maroon clown, 1 hippo tang, and a very large snow flake eel and they are all doing fine

OHH! the lion fish would only eat shrimp from the super market there whole life

any body has a clue on what killed them or what there life span is???

Thank guys!

They went blind from the krill you feed them...
Change up diet and they should be fine, assuming thats your only problem...
