That's horrible!! I'm sorry to hear about the loss!
I had a diamond goby that went carpet diving as well and it's no fun finding them :(
Good luck finding another that will eat pellets or even frozen food!

sorry... those guys are known to be jumpers, especially when initially put in a tank.

That's what cats are for... they save you the heartbreak of actually finding the body. ;)
