After 2 hours of scratching my head, tearing apart the room, tearing down my qt tank i have found it by accident… My Blue hippo tang of a small 1 inch was doing amazing till one day it had a black spot. a week of treatment later its all better. eating everything i give it. Today it showed up missing. Cleaned everything, searched everywhere, then noticed something. My HOB refug i am beta testing for my main tank is making a funny noise… I think o the prop is misaligned… took the pipe off, and out floats a white, what i thought foam. Nope it was Dori. She got sucked up the intake. Sad sad day. Figured out a way to fix the problem so it doesnt happen on main… im kind of disappointed… Anyone else got any strange stories about missing fish, or losing your fav fish…
i have a fish in my tank that ive had for about 2-3 months now and ive only seen it maybe 4-5 times…i know hes in there…and its funny when he actually pops out…
that sucks tho, id imagine somethin was wrong with the tang, i would assume the intake isnt strong enough to just suck her up without something already being wrong with the fish…maybe not tho because i had fish that would get sucked down my overflow, and then i would have to fish them out the 'fuge…after a while i really think they found out they could go on this roller coaster ride to a different world…atleast once a week i would have to fish a guy outta there…
Haha, ya i think she might have died then got sucked up…
they seem to starve most of the time. not becaus they arent being fed, they r just so timid. and ANYTHING seems to shy them from feeding time. i normally try to shott for the bigger guys just fro that reason. a little bolder
