Monday night my flame wrasse went missing. Screened top so he didn't jump. I checked all over, rocks, overflow, sump. No where to be found. He was fat and healthy. Occasionally chased by the dumb pintail but he was able to loop around him and get the best pieces of food. I had a Potter's angel do the same thing, no trace. Guess he died and the reef consumed him. I was really bummed as he was my favorite fish and probably impossible to replace due to the ban. Tonight I saw one on TSM for $599 so I decided to look one more time. Flashlight onto the corner overflow and there he was looking at me like "what took you so long"! Took all the drains out, manifold in the sump, cups. I'm beat but at least he is back in the DT tonight.

You're not going to believe this. Now the pintail is in the overflow! Time to shut everything down again.:rolleyes:
