Thanks bro , we put alot of time and effort into them and then something stupid happens wich causes you to second guess yourself regarding staying in the hobby.
are you sure, man? You know what they say "Once you go black, you never go back" LOL
Sorry man, it sucks....a few months ago my male G. brasiliensis jumped out of my planted tank and I was lucky enough to find him before he got stepped on or eaten by my dogs....fortunately he was ok and is doing well. It happens all the time, all we can do is learn from it and move on.
I swear they need hybrid tank tops made for fish but secure enough for snakes - ideal for Morays and Eels, Arros, Parachromis, Polys, Snakeheads - all the jumpers and escape artists
