Jumping Lionfish?

0

Hey Guys, I know people usually write to the site looking for advice, but I need more of a detective. I *used* to have a Dwarf Lionfish who unfortunately passed away last week. The fish tank he was in is in the living room, and I found his body in my bedroom. I also have 2 cats, which obviously helped him get all the way down the hallway into the bedroom. The thing im trying to figure out is if the lionfish jumped out of the tank, which has a cover and only has openings for the filter/heater cords, or if the cats fished him out? Both seem unlikely to me; however the openings would be big enough for him to jump through or a cats paw to fit in. I read through your website before I even bought the lionfish but didn’t see anything about them getting airborne. The only other occupants in his 55 gallon tank are a Clarkii Clownfish and a Blue Damsel, and neither bothered him. I’m completely puzzled about what happened, and am wondering if I should take the same precautions for housing an eel
