Helfrichi Firefish Jumped

[bigjgmac]

My beautiful Helfrichi firefish (known as Awedish Fish at our house) jumped. I know they are famous for this, but I have a tight jump guard in my reef tank. I can’t believe it fit through the mesh, but obviously it did. Bummer, he was super chill and healthy. I’m sad that he cam to such an inauspicious end.
RIP Swedish Fish.

I bet you have the 1/4" mesh. They go right through that. I changed all mine to the 1/8" for that reason.

Yep, I did. If I get another one, I’ll change it out beforehand.

They are indeed. I may have to replace it. You know, after the grieving process.
