I'm so bummed! My favorite Orange Stubby clown committed suicide yesterday. I kept telling myself to build a netted top but I never did.

Good bye my favorite Nemo ... sorry lil buddy :(

Thanks guys. Ya I found him all crusty and crunchy :( Don't you hate it when you procrastinate and then something like this happens? ugh!

Keith, I do have a screen over my DT but this was in my wifes little Mr.Aqua 12gal... this guy was like a little puppy who ate out of my hand.

That's a tragedy. It's stories like this that make me wake up at night in a cold sweat...
I know...I came home after having my wife pick up and pay for the 3rd car being fixed this week to her telling me she had more bad news... I'm like "noooooooooooo!"

Rob did u disturb his tank? Like move rocks or add corals etc. last time I did that I had 2 clowns jump. Bummer

Hey Nick. No we hadn't moved or disturbed anything. he might have gotten startled in the middle of the night. Who knows. Hopefully my lesson has been learned.

Good news is that we have 2 baby Bangai's we took out of my main DT overflow box and put them in the this small 12gal. It's pretty cool. The male in my DT has babies in his mouth again.. so we'll try to save more this time. My wife built a fake urchin out of putty and plastic took picks so maybe we'll have more success this time. My file fish ate all but 2 last time.

BUmmer I had my Midas jump yesterday even with the top I built!!! I used the bird netting that you can pick up at Home Depot and I didn't think there was any way he could have slipped through?
