Assuming it “went over the wall” my Male Interuptus… ( Congo Tetra ) was the dominant fish in the tank…he was continually chasing the females, and “flash battling” with the yellow tail male… there are a lot of hiding places, he could have wedged himself into, but suspect he was showing off or challenged into leaping, as I can’t find him in the tank anywhere… the tank is open topped, but being built in, has walls above it, to the ceiling, on 3 sides, with only one narrow side open… he would have had to pull a Salmon move, and jumped against the significant current, and over the filter, that completely covers the open narrow end of the tank, and would have to have missed a few Pothos vines that go across the open end over the filter, that would have bounced him back into the tank…
There was a history of challenging between him and the yellow tail male but no fin shredding… so I’m guessing that bravado got the best of him… I looked on the floor of the work area behind the tanks, but didn’t find him, he may have flopped under the stand for the other tanks???
Disappointing, as he was a nice looking fish
