my blue streak cleaner wrasse has jump out from my tank.. i am not sure how long it's in my house floor...

when my house keeper said my fish jump out.. i directly catch the fish and put it back into my tank (it still in the net).. i think it's dead first time... didn't make any movement there... just like a dead fish... luckly i see he still breathing.. even it's hard breathing... it's getting better and can swim around my tank after 3-4 hours later.. and didn't want eat anythink...

luckly today he start eating now.... i am worried if it will a bad effect on the fish....

this is the third time my fish jump out... 2 times is tomato clown

luckly my cat didn't find it that time
 
Maybe worth thinking about putting some coverings on top of the tank to stop it happening again..

Yep. I think if the fish is swimming and eating more than likely it will recover nicely.
 
I agree with all of the above, with any kind of jumping fish its a must to cover the tank.
