So I came home late this afternoon from the office and noticed that the anemone in my small tank (NuvoMini 38) wasn't opening up. Hmmm...what happened I wonder? After about a minute...oh no, I don't see my six-line wrasse anywhere. Could it be that it got a little too friendly with anemone? A few hours later, the anemone opened up but the six-line is still nowhere to be found. I can only come to this conclusion, right? Sucks!

Hmm I doubt it ate him. Might be buried in the sand, either got spooked or is sleeping. Also look around tank and see if he didnt jump out, if you don't have a lid. Last he could have taken a ride through the overflow ended up in the sump.

That sucks. I know the feeling. I had a carpet eat a mandarin goby. I saw it at like 1am when I was leaving for work. Then a few days later the kids were asking what happened to Sally the mandarin? At the time I forgot that the carpet had ate it and was over at the tank looking for it too. Then that night it hit me. Tapped the old lady on the shoulder and said "I know what happened to Sally the big carpet nem ate it." She got all pissed and said the carpet had to go.

I wish...I'm pretty sure he ate it. I looked everywhere. I have lid and I looked everywhere. He had been pretty active and visible up until then.
