What The .....


So after all the excitment of yesterday, I was checking out all the new pieces in my tank when i noticed something odd!!I look in my 30 gal and notice my singapore angel under one of my rocks,head up not moving.Im thinking,"Great man down",so i stick my hand into the tank and start to pull at the tail and it moved!!!!!Here the stupid angel had got itself stuck inside of hole on the underside of the rock!After a bit of a struggle and alittle grease(jk) i got him free but hes struggling!!!

I had a similar thing about a month ago with my yellow tang wedging himself into an area where it couldn't get out. Thankfully, I noticed mine in time as well (ok, a day and a half after he went missing) and he was doing much better the next day. All I can say is to rearrange your rock work so it can't happen again and hope that your angel recovers.

Sorry to hear that! Would that be the "Darwin award" for fish? Or maybe it was a fish dare from the tank gang, "Hey buddy, I dare you to try and get through that space".
