Six line wrasse MIA

[BuDZnSuDS]

hey guys, My sixline usually likes to come out and swim around the rocks esp when the lights on and my pair of clowns stick to their side of the tank but i havnt seen my sixline even when i droped his minced clams in the tank. my clowns have adapted to a new area of the tank wich i noticed about an hr ago. Do you think the sixline is just being stubburn or hes dead?

I chimed in about this in your "Meet & Greet" thread.

Hard to tell, I hope he shows up for you.. check the floor, They can be jumpers..

Bud,
I bought a 6 line a while back to help control flatworms. The dealer stated that they can be jumpers. I keep half a folding glass cover just at the back of my tank so he cant jump out.

Hope you find it in your tank and not as a crispy critter on the floor.

thanks limpits but i moved alot of rock and put it back together precisly because i heard that it could screw up the clowns pairing system for breeding. Im gunna move the desk and look in the baseboard heating before work.

I just found a dotty back in the hallway......about 30 feet from the tank!

 

[BuDZnSuDS]

Wow im sorry to hear that. Its like he grew legs and walked though lol. Was it the yellow and purple dottyback?

 

[Varga]

yup, yellow and purple. Lasted a week in the tank. either flapped his way through the fish room, under the door and into the hallway.....or a cat took him. He was nice and crunchy when I found him
