Bummer This Morning

[PaulineMi]

One of my lovely albino Dantum angels turned up as a crispy critter on the lid of their tank.     I keep all tanks well covered and have never had this occur before.

They say if there's an opening they'll find it. On this 90 gallon there was a small temporary opening for the Magnum HOT filter inlet and return tubes. How, and even why, this juvenile jumped out and landed on the lid is a mystery. It would have had to fit in the small gap between the tubes. I fixed things so that now the top has zero openings.

It's amazing that Angels, not really known as 'jumpers', still find a way to do it sometimes.....has he/she been chased before..??

That sucks! I'm sorry you lost him.

Sorry you lost that one Pauline. I once found a missing female in the well of an aquaclear 110. She was still alive.

What a shame.

Thanks.  There was no aggression in the tank. The only thing I can imagine is perhaps the lights startled it when they came on???  The lighting is subdued but who knows....
