Well I woke up this morning to find my little clown fish on my couch. The thing that baffles me is there is a lid on the tank. I just don't get it. There's such a little gap, I don't see how it could have jumped out... RIP little homie, sucks

Sorry to hear about your loss. If a fish can fit through it they will! Wonder how long he was out. I have a clown that jumped out. He was on the floor for over an hour. When I found him he wasnt moving and almost crispy he was so dry. I rushed him to the tank, put him in and swished him back and fourth for a few min. He woke up and swam away like nothing ever happened.He is still alive and well.

Ya it was sometime in the night he must of jumped out cause he was very stiff. Thanks, wish I could have caught it earlier.

I wish I could have done that! He was a goner
 
Sorry to hear that happened, been there myself, not the best feeling in the world.

Thanks, it just sucks because there is a top on this tank. It's my sons tank but luckily he is not old enough to realize what happened. The crazy thing is that I've never had this happen, even with my 220 and that didn't have any tops on it. Thanks again.
