Holy mackerel! (or in this case "eel" perhaps?). That's AWESOME man!! What a great pleasant surprise.

It was very cool finding him/her. Not like finding $300.00, more like $150.00

Wow, that is great news!

I wish I could say that for the following that have gone missing over time:
- first flame angel
- McCloskers Wrasse
- a couple others I can't remember right now.

it is tough when something goes missing, and you can't find a body or see anything carpet surfing.

Great news on the eel!

It really seems hard to believe until something like this happens to you. The non-hobbyist staring at our tanks doesn't comprehend the vast number of hiding spots in live rock.

Neither do we sometimes. You gotta love taking a rock out during maintenance and then finding a fish in it or near it!
