 Wow - that sucks.  Seen them all over town lately, though... Gold, Ocean, Wai's. All around 50 bucks or so. The bigger ones were cheaper at Gold, of course, but you should go on a Friday to get one.

That s#cks buddy. My beautiful tile fish jumped a couple days after I got him, even with plastic netting over my tank. It knocked over a plastic container to get out through my filter hole on the top-back of my plexi. I almost know how you feel (silver lining - I didn't have it long enough to get too attached but tilefish are my fav fish). Goes to show, we can only provide the best care we know how. If the animal decides to kamikaze, not much we can do, eh?

Tonight, my new Scissortail Goby/Dartfish didn't even wait to get in the tank. It jumped out of the bag floating on top of my tank to go check out my stereo system on the book shelves nearby. Guess it wanted to make sure it was a Sony & could play some soothing CDs or something
 Luckily, not too banged up before I tossed it back in. I even had my plastic screening cut & ready. Go figure.

We were sitting there watching TV the other nite and an anthias came flying by. Tossed it back in without detriment.
Dollar to a donut tho, it's the one I now need to trap somehow because it's becoming the second male.

CRAP - last night our small Mandarin flew, too...
 Had no IDEA those things could fly - something must have spooked her. That's a terrible sight, those beautiful markings all dried up and black... Deb, if your anthias needs a home, let me know. (woops - maybe not? "It will not harm inverts, but is not well suited to brightly lit shallow water reef tanks... It might also lose it's color in a brightly lit reef tank.")

Here's a new conspiracy theory.
Our fish can read. They logged onto CanReef after lights out, read about other fish flying, & thought "Hey, I can do that too. Onwaaards & Upwaaards to Freeeeedom!" Splat!!! Just a theory. Still collecting proof, although my keyboard was damp this morning when I booted up. Things that make you go "Hmmmmmm"
