| Missing Sixline Very strange thing happened, I saw my sixline a few days ago and everything was normal and he was eating great. Now the past 4 days he is missing in action. Looked all around the tank and no fish chips that I can find.
Just sucks because he was the first fish in the tank and by far my favorite. _________ Link to My 75 Reef Hardware 75G 20G DIY Refugium/Sump 2 250W MH, 4 65W PC Koralia 1 and Koralia 2 Powerheads for Currents Mag 9.5 for Sump/Fuge Return TLF Phosban Reactor Coralife Super Skimmer Software Domino Damsel Coral Beauty Maroon Clown Diana Hogfish Skunk Cleaner Shrimp

| Yeah checked the overflow and the filter sock in case he made it down the overflow. I'm hoping he is just having a bad week and will show up. |

| Coincidently my prized sixline also came up missing few days ago
Not a jumper, have had 6+ years...
"Googling" "sixline wrasse lifespan" - I found it reported anywhere between 4 and 10 years.
May be reason...
Also have no idea as to age when I got it. But probably was a juvenile as that is what I always try to get when adding any fish. Don't remember.
Still hoping is on extended vacation somewhere in tank and hoping it will show up.
If does not, trip to LFS for another in order, while tank inhabitants are used to having one around...
RIP Sixline?---
