Just got home from an incredibly traumatic 14 hour straight shift, panicking because my fiancé is away and couldn't turn off the lights and one of my yo-yo loaches has literally disappeared into thin air (well, water). I have, in my blind panic, taken out all the bogwood, plants and planted ornaments, checked every nook and cranny in them, behind and in the filter/heater unit, even sifted through my gravel and sand substrate. There is no evidence of a dead yo-yo (found some more baby assassins though), my water parameters are all stable as ever and the lid of my aquarium is as tight fitting and hole less as ever. I'm pretty sure I'm never going to find the poor little fella and I'm almost as sure that the other fish in there couldn't strip the body to nothing in 14 hours!
