Oh son of a &!%$@

[fritz]

Today I noticed my yellow wrasse was missing. I checked behind the tank to see if he decided to go exploring but he wasn't there. I looked under the rocks, checked the intake of my pumps, looked in the usual caves, all with no luck. I gave it 20 minutes and came back and looked some more. "Where can he be?", I asked myself. No, he, nah. He wouldn't have jumped into the overflow......

Damn.

He's staying there.

I had purchased a Skunk Clown & it disapppeared a few days later.
A month later, one of my wrasses found a 1" hole in my overflow & decided to jump in.
While fishing out the Carpenter (which was a pain in the @ss), I found the Skunk clown

Well about 2 weeks ago, the Skunk did it again.
He's still there.
:theyareon

I feed mysis to my overflow

Solitary confinement

 

[JHOV2324]

he's probably under the sand doofus...lol

 

[russianmd]

After getting one of my chromis from the overflow once, I've decided to let him think about his behavior while there the second time. What a pain in the a$$!:anger2:

Well, I know he is not starving.

Exactly!

He'll learn.

I have to wonder just hw many of we wrasse enthuiasts are feeding mysis to our overflows and keeping our mouths shut about it...lol

Both of my blue sided wrasse jumped into the 2 individual overflows. I couldn't get them out, and eventually 1 jumped back into the tank, and the other went down into the sump. They are both back in the tank, and seem to have learned their lesson.:wink1:

For now!! LOL :fish:

Actually my algae blenny use to do it all the time. At least there was plenty of algae in there for him to munch on.

 

[jhale]

why not pull the durso's up and flush all those overflow trapped fish into the sump?

 

[tosiek]

OR....

why not stretch a bit of netting over the overflow?

Hmm....

 

[Aqua Pro Builder]

Well I just took two of my peppermint out of my sump/refuge return pump area.

I cannot imagine how can they squeeze thru the filter pad and the chaeto that I tug in the gaps if there's any.

 

[scarf_ace1981]

LMAO @ all of you. i haven't had any jump into the overflow but my strawberry pseudochromis jumped into my HOB fuge and then jumped back in the tank.

 

[russianmd]

Yeah, that's exactly what I did the first time - and will do the second time. The funny thing is, I can see the chromis in the box. The lesson learned for me - never buy fish small enough to squeeze through the overflow slots. :arg:

I had thought my firefish had been eaten, 2-3 weeks later I see him swimming thru the rubble in my sump. I spent an hr 1/2 trying to fish him out. I finally got him with some flake food for bait.
I have a 4 stripe damsel sharing a fuge room with an emerald at the moment. They get mysis and flake food.

i did that before when my perc jumped in the overflow...he made it through just fine...I had to cover my overflow w/ guttergard because as soon as i flushed him out and put him back in the display he would jump right back in....After about 3 times i decided to cover the overflow
