Have a starry blenny that has jumped out once . He was lucky I was around . The cats were licking there lips and playing with it. It now lives in my sump. I keep catching it and releasing it back into the main tank. The next morning I usually find him in the sump again. Have since given up on returning him to the main tank.

I lost a pair of blue side wrasses in one night. I was on vacation, the fellow I had feeding my fish forget to close the canopy after feeding them, he found both of them on the floor the next morning.

I've had a firefish, and a blenny jump out. I also had a zebra goby chased out of the tank by a tomato clown. Found the clown on the top middle brace of the tank (still alive) put her back in and she died 3 days later (one side of her body, the side that was on the brace, was in really bad shape) found the goby on the floor the day after I found the clown and realized what happened. Silly fish need to learn to stay in their tanks!

Put a cover of some type on your tanks. This is the equivalent to leaving your doors open and then complaining when your dog gets hit by a car, "he never learns."
