Blue Spot Jawfish

[blairdawg]

I got a Blue Spot Jawfish a week ago. He started eating right away and looked very healthy. Now I can't find him anywhere. I have no openings so he couldn't have jumped. I did some searchin with my flashlight and no body. I'm pretty bumbed becuase I finally have a tank that is completely closed in which I can keep one and he looked really healthy and ate like a mother, now gone. Hopefully he's down burrowing but something tells me hes not. Anyway ill keep my fingers crossed.. lol

Do a water test, see if anything has gone up even slightly. If it has and you have no other reason for it going up then you should start searching a round the bottom of your rock formation.

I've had 2. One died of bsj disease and one jumped out. Check around your tank again. He could of flopped off somewhere you wouldn't expect.

OOps..scratch that...skimmed and didn't notice "no opening". hope all turns well

 

[blairdawg]

My tank Parameters are very stable. I hope I can atleast find the body so I can have some closure.. haha I love those fish

 

[mattmike0405]

[dgood]

Did you ever find him? I have one as well and couldn't find him last night. He looked good the night before that.

 

[blairdawg]

Do you have a dog?

 

[blairdawg]

I think im going with a pearly head jawfish now becuase they are alot less expensive and still very cool looking. I can't aford to keep buying blue spotted jawfish and have them die.

Do you have a dog?

If they question is for me, yes I do.

 

[danagui]

I've had fish get out of a sealed tank only to become a snack for my dog. Not sure how though lol

 

[blairdawg]

Hey you never know I guess. I hope it was something like that. I'd like to think I have reef that is more than healthy enough for one! lol

 

[danagui]

Either that or he's gone into hibernation. Who knows. Fish are a mystery
