I have had a few fish go missing and the other day I found bird **** beside my tank. Things that make you go HHHMMMMMM.
Maybe having the window open is not a good thing.

Tell me about it. One of my buddies gave me two hermit crabs. Found out later that thay where nothing but a manness. So started a tank for them allone. They fought. I have one now that is size of tennis ball. He can eat a 1-2" dead fish in a couple of hours. Lesson learned. BEWARE OF FRIENDS BEARING GIFTS.

Although it is kind of sad seeing him gone, but the most important thing is what if he is dead and some how his body stuck in the rock or something. Will that makes water bad just like fresh water?
