I lost one YWG a year ago to jumping, so I was more mad at myself for not having a top. But now, I lost my yellow clown goby to reasons unknown.
I heard either my vortech or pump make really loud noises for about 10 seconds late last night and when I turned on the lights, I had no idea what happened, and the noise stopped. I began looking for my goby but couldn't find him. This morning I woke up and hermits / a brittle star were fighting over the top yellow part of his dead body.
I am super bummed. I'm still am not entirely sure if the two are related... but everything else in the tank is doing well so I don't know what else could have killed him. He was only in for 2 days so I wonder if I got a bad shipment. I did a 20% water change, so hopefully that will take care of any nitrates from him dying.
