I intially sat down to seek help on how to get my Midas Blenny out of the back corner overflow. At some point last night the mischievous fellow made the jump into the overflow, and it must have been a perfect jump as there is not much of a gap between the screen that covers the tank and overflow wall.

My wife not only was the one to spot him in the overflow, but she devised the rescue plan and executed it. She worked with a net for about 5 minutes, then had me drop a few food pellets in. Midas, never one to miss a meal, swam right out over the net to grab a pellet and my wife netted him!

Not only was it a momentous occasion because she rescued him, but it was the most outward interest/concern she has ever showed towards the aquarium!! As she is one to occasionally check in on my blog I wanted to say, good job honey!

A picture I took for my original post of the overflow.

The happily ever-after ending.
