I've had one of my Clowns and my firefish go into the overflow, at least the Clown surfed right through too my sump. I spent 2 hours trying to get the firefish out of the overflow.

I had my 4" lawnmower Benny jumped out of my tank yesterday. Found him starting to dry. When I picked him up he started to move. I put him back in the tank he took off. So far so good. In the passed I had 2 Orange Spotted Gobies jump out in the middle of the night too through egg crate. They did not survide.

My LMB carpet surfed a while back and I found him all crispy and dry but I put him back in the tank and he recovered nicely. (he was "tacky" to the touch and covered in cat hair)

My female clown wasn't so lucky, didn't find her in time

Usually fish jump when:
- Rise in ammonia levels.
- Ph drop (co2 rise)
- Enemy/ predator presence
- Territorial fight.
- Sudden scare such as lights going on/off all at once.
