It's been 3 days since I last saw my sailfin blenny. No sign of her and she's one of my favorites. I'm sad.
 
A,B,C and D for me as well. I wish I could say I've never had a fish go missing but that's not the case.
 
Look in your overflow, filter Sox (if you have them) and your sump. Also it may be possible that it is hiding in a location that is different from its normal location. My YWG did that once when my pink spotted goby stole her cave. It took me a few days to find her that time. My YWG now lives with my jawfish and gives any encroaching fish a piece of her mind.
Hope your salfin reappears. Let us know.
