Jumping picasso!

[wilawalo]

I have had my picasso for about 6 months now, and she jumped the tank last night and landed in the sump... which is located behind my tank... thank god because she is an expensive fish! So I fished her out and 2 hours later she is back in the sump. I am going to test my water tomorrow and see if that is the reason. But any other ideas?

Fish Stock List:
1 picasso clown
1 onyx clown
1 royal gramma
1 starry night blenny
CUC
anemone
clam

Oh tank is a 44 gallon corner pent.

Usually this is caused by someone chasing the other out. Possible female female mix of clowns. Also check to see if she is going down the drain line.

I have a CPR hang on over flow she is jumping in the back corner of the pentagon. The picasso is almost double the size of the onyx. Should I separate them?

You should cover the tank... If they aren't fighting I wouldnt separate them.
