I have a 80L aquarium set up for 6 months or so, with two health common clownfish.
This week I added three small clumps of macro algae; red ribbon, Caulpera Prolifera and Hailemeda. The Macroalgae was in a separate tank for 24 hours, after which I swished it around and did a few rinses in saltwater before adding it to the tank.
Within 24 hours, one of my healthy clownfish jumped out a small gap overnight. I covered the gaps.
24 hours again, the second clownfish jumped out, again at night through a different and smaller gap.
No other changes were made in a month other than the macro algae. A month prior I added a tailspot blenny which underwent 30 days of copper power, the same as the clownfish.
What gives!
I replaced the first jumping clownfish yesterday by purchasing a new C. Clown to a QT tank... Guess I'm out shopping again this weekend to add another clown to the QT>
