They are great jumpers, do you have anything that would pick it up of the floor What do you have for critters in your tank - I have a brittle star that would get ride of any evidence of a dead fish But I hope you do find it alive , they are great fish

Nope, I dont have any other pets. Maybe my parents picked it up?

I have an emerald crab but I dont think he can eat a whole firefish in a day.

I hope he comes out too. Nice fish and expensive

I think I saw some purple firefish at King Ed yesterday. $35 a piece if memory serves right. I'd call them to confirm though.

Nope
I have never seen it since.

I don't think he survived but I dunno why he died. Everything in my tank seems to be okay. Enough food to go around. My water is okay. The only other wish I have is a clownfish and it doesn't chase anyone around.

There goes $40 down the drain
