    Sorry to hear this also. I have lost a few of my wrasses through some tiny gaps which I thought beyond a doubt were way too small. I know how much it sucks to lose that thin, slippery missile.

    That sucks to hear. I've had several fish die from jumping. I had a flasher wrasse jump into my overflow, lucky I found him there and was able to get him out, but he died a few days later for unknown reasons. I found him being eaten by my hermits.

    KC, so sorry to hear about your loss. I think its even tougher because she survived the awful shipping experience.

    Thank you. It is. She had a very special place in my heart. I really admired her strength, as weird as that may seem. lol

    Nope, not weird at all...I completely get it. We had a diamond goby that jumped out of the tank. We found him in the morning, had no idea how long he had been out. When my son went to flush him, he started moving so we quick threw him back in the tank. Took him a week to recover and then lived for another 6 months. I was really upset when he died.
