so after a long day of work... i came home today to find my Femal Snownyx clownfish that ive had for a litte over 1 year now.. and for som strange reason jumped out of the tank

i bought them from my breeder and he told me they were paired up for 1 year before i bought em, so this pair had been together for nearly 2 years...

that hardest thing about this whole scenario, is this weekend i had it planned out to make 2 tops for the tank, a screen top for the day, and an acrylic top for the night to help with Overflow sound while i sleep since it is in my room..

its def sad to see my male swimming alone now too, suck too cause i bought these clowns when i was unemployed... (thank god im not anymore)... and put alot of effort to provide a good enviroment for them, and i really just loved this pair of clowns, hey were super friendly when i stuck my hand in the tank, and just very active to watch

Just had to vent is all

Sorry to hear, it sucks when you loose livestock to jump out of tank syndrome

sorry for your loss...

I learned my lesson with jumpers from my FW tank, so before I put my clowns in the SW tank I built screens. Originally I was building them for my wrasse, but I got them done early as the clowns were going in first.

That sucks. She was a nice one. Even though they look nice, I won't buy a tank without a lid for this reason. I hope you can find a nice replacement for her.
