2 day old midas blenny jumper

[604reefer]

So time for an update... have been leaving the net off the top.

Get home from work at 5pm yesterday and only see 3 fish, but figure ok he's just perching in a normal hiding spot. Take the dog out, feed the dog, go get a slurpy, and come back about 35 mins after originally arriving home. Still don't see Gus...

I start asking my dog if he ate Gus, because I don't see him anywhere IN the tank or OUT. Then I see a bubble in the 2 gal pail of water I have next to the tank. It's been left there for a week since my last WC (was too lazy to just dump it).

Somehow, blenny Gus jumped out of the tank and into the dirty, no air exchange, no heater, sitting stagnant for a week after WC water. He was there at least 35 minutes, probably much longer, gasping for air at the surface.

Scoop the idiot out, dunk him back in the tank, heads to hiding spot and somehow regained all color and started eating again in less than 3 hours. UNBELIEVABLE FISH - HOW MANY LIVES DOES HE HAVE?!?
