My dwarf lionfish died sometime in the last day or so. I found him missing
today, then found him dead on the floor behind the tank. he either jumped
out or got pulled out by a cat. Yesterday, I think it was, I saw my cat,
which is over fifteen years old, sitting atop my fish tank, looking down
into the water at an open corner near the back of the tank. I chased the cat
off the tank, and didn't think to count my fishes. Now I am thinking I might
have missed a chance to save the fish's life. I cannot believe that a fish
dying could bother me this much. I would rather have lost the cat than the
fish. Mike

Cats are evil and piss all over the place. You should get rid of it
anyway.

I am not certain that the cat pulled him out of the tank- i only saw the cat
on top of the tank the day before i found the lionfish dried up on the
floor(without any lacerations on it) behind the tank. It is possible the
fish jumped on top of the cover, and the cat heard or saw him flopping up
there, and was just looking at it- or the cat may have had nothing at all to
do with the fish going onto the floor. Of course, it is remotely possible
the cat yanked the fish out of the tank, but that would be without getting
stung, and without marking the fish. Basically, the fish probably simply
jumped out- he had jumped out once before when i was feeding them. Mike.

The cat did it and should be put to death.

well, if it wasn't for the fact that the cat belonged to my mom, I would
want to kill it too, but I am content to just wait till it dies on it's
own, and not get any more cats. They really are vile animals.Mike.

Drown the freaking cat. Who cares if it was your mommas or not. Just
put it in the tank the lionfish was in and use a snug fitting lid and
call it a saltwatrer cat fish. Screw a cat. cats suck like the
majority of folks that used to be in the ramr group, that have
migrated here and other places...........
