RIP Clown fishies

[wetjet43]

Both of my clown fish jumped out of the tank. Not at once, but about 3 weeks apart. The fit through a 1 inch gap in the back of the tank that all my lines run out of. I found the one lying on the floor the next morning behind the tank. Poor little dried up thing. Then the other one did the same exact thing 3 weeks later.

Sorry about the image being so bit. It's my final memorial for my fish. They were good fish and deserve a big picture.

Sorry for your loss. That's tough, losing both both of them.

Nice pair. Sorry for your loss.

Thank you. I got a new pair that aren't true percula clowns, as the only local saltwater lfs in my area closed it's doors a few weeks ago. I rescued these two from the battery acid tanks at petco. They looked healthy, and I felt sorry for them. They aren't a pair. One has fallen in love with my new anemone, and won't let the other on near it. They aren't as good looking as my old ones either, but they are much happier in my tank than petcos.
