I had a red tail shark jump and wasn't discovered until my wife vacuumed the carpet. He was dried up by then Best of luck to your survivor

He should be fine. Put a lid on.

On the other hand, I waited forever for some Grammodes and the second day I got a pair, the female jumped ship on me. What a burn!

 

[ohhsweetness]

Hopefully he will make it. We have all lost a fish or two. For me including a JD, wolf fish, and a Tem. GL!

My oscar jumped ship on me about a month ago. My roomate found her next to her tank he got her back in asap. I about had a heart attack when I got the news. Shes my baby. There was a spike in Nitrates that stressed her out hard core. We have been through a lot so I was surprised. I was also surprised to fine the nitrate problem was not my fault. I use city water and there was a lot of nitrate in from the tap. So check your water perimeters and keep and eye one your guy also I would suggest weighting down the lid and give your fish a little more time in the dark if you can. Good luck I am sure you will do fine.

Ive had a red tail shark jump, actually 2 of them on 2 different occasions. I also had a pleco jump too, I found him and put him back in on time. He wasnt moving but still moist, he revived. I think your fish will be OK. As long as hes breathing and is wet he should recover. I would probably shut the lights off in the tank though, might help with keeping the stress down.

i had a siamese algae eater jump out and i didn't notice it for a few days until i slipped over it with no shoes on, nice and squidgy. when my bala sharks got ich they went mad and jumped and jumped hitting the lid hard every time until they killed themselves.
