came home today and notice my sump was low and the return pump was drawing in air. i topped up the tank but no difference. i wasnt getting any water back into my sump. so i took out the megaflow return line and it was clear, then i looked into the bottom of the tank where the bulk head was, and there was my lunar wrasse's tail sticking out.
i used some long handled grabbers and after a few tries i pulled him out. he still was alive.....
does anyone have a spare strainer that would fit onto the end of the intake? or where to get one?

Any aquarium store should be able to set you up with a strainer.

If nothing else, there's this:http://www.jlaquatics.com/phpstore/store_pages/details/plumbing.php?product_ID=pl-bhst1

They should probably have slip versions too. Worst case scenario, pick up a threaded-to-slip adapter at Home Depot/Rona/Etc.

thanks Tony, the wrasse is swimming and feeding fine this morning. he's got a little scrap on the top of his head. hope this heals over fine.
