There are many more questions to answer before we can give any help.

1. Is the new tank mature? How old is the tank the fish was moved into? What are the chemistries of the new tank (all numbers).
2. What equipment is being used on the new tank?
3. What has this fish been eating? How often was it fed?
4. List all marine life in the new tank.
5. Is the new tank a FOWLR or Reef or ? system?
