Unfortunately I haven't seen him around the tank for two days... my LFS also said he may have swallowed an air bubble...
I'm assuming the worst...that he didn't make it and that the cleaning crew got him. I'm pretty bummed out about it... he was a cool fish... there are plenty of pods in the tank...I always shine my light in the tank at night about once a week..just to make sure I see them buzzing around...neither of my mandarins are/were thin ... both well fed..
I thought about trying to catch him before he went missing..but figured the added stress would definitely kill him... so I didn't try to do that...
This was a photo of him the day he got sick..
