    So I have been quarantining all my fish to be rid of ich, and am currently on week 6. I have done everything to try to make my fish happy in their temporary home, and thought that I was out of the woods 3 weeks ago when I stopped their copper treatment. But this morning I came downstairs to notice my longnose hawkfish on the floor beside the quarantine tank. I was very surprised because he had never shown a tendency to jump in the 4 months I've had him.

    Anyway, I'm pretty bummed out over this. Just wanted to vent here.

    Sorry dude. I had a LNH that, during the coarse of trying to catch, jumped quite high while trying to clear the net. They can launch.

    I'm sorry for your loss. John is right, they can really launch.
