I did a more "in depth" investigation of the overflows. I found no balas but there were no less than 7 lampeyes in the boxes that have resided in there god knows how long.
Bala Sharks disappearing.

I know right...my pictus mightve gone hungry one day if I never got those snacks out of there. Probably start ripping bala sharks apart again
I Had a 8" rainbow wolf do the same thing.Stupid question maybe… how bout those overflow boxes? Looks fairly easy for someone to go right in there with the water level. I keep plastic mesh type lids on the one i do have. B hard to see a bala in one on the black. I had a 18” tire track eel stuck in a 1.5” drain pvc pipe that eluded me until the tank over flowed…
I also fished a living, and now much larger odoe pike out of an overflow and severl other fish that had been missing for a time.
I usually just pull the drain pipe and blindly grab my net or barehand them
Missing fish?... have you thought about this as a possibility?
Really the only logical explanation given the evidence. Someone broke into my home, passed on all of my valuables, and absconded with my 3 smallest bala sharks. Bunch of savages in this town...Missing fish?... have you thought about this as a possibility?
Ha. I was in a similar situation. Bought 3 new fish, and in the morning, all were gone. Cichlids can be jerks, so maybe they were eaten. But then about 5 days later, I see one of the "missing" fish chilling behind a rock. Don't loose hope
