    just thought id share this will you all.

    when i got up this morning i went to check on my 2 clowns and i couldnt see them anywhere. :(
    i moved the tank out to look behind my rock and still nothing.
    the first thing that went through my mind was MANTIS!!!!!

    well my other half said what about the filter maybe they got sucked into there well i didnt believe him but anyway i still checked.

    i took off my canister filter and there they both were swimming at the bottom.

    there back in the tank and seem fine.:)
    so ive put something on the end of the hose so it doesnt happen again.poor fish
