Funny Story

Has anyone had this happen to them?
I was changing the filter pads in my 180 gal sump and noticed that my royal gramma was swimming in the sump. Kinda of reminded me of Little Nemo! Anyway, my wife and I were laughing so hard, it didn't help trying to catch the fish. I ended up having to shut the pump off, remove all the bio balls from one side of the filter and net the fish. He survived with only a minor scratch on his side.
I'm still trying to figure out how he got through the bio balls down to the sump??????:notsure: :notsure: Must have been one heck of a ride. Thought I would share it with you guys and see if anyone else has had a similar experience.

Still haven't figured it out? I guess I will never know. It still quite hilarious. Never thought a fish would try to escape. Maybe he watched the movie too!!
