leap of faith

[eh1421]

my 24" silver took the leap last night
lucky for me i was home
it was about 1:30 in the morning and we had a power outage
so i was using my cell phone as a flash light trying to find my real one when
i think the light from my phone spooked the beast
so he jumped, broke my glass top and land on the other glass top on the other side of the tank
talk about a load noise
so using my cell phone as a flash light again i was able to get him back in the tank

all is well again aside for some missing scales and a couple torn fins
i was lucky this time
lets pray it does not happen again
