I've heard these stories before, but finally have one of my own.
In November, I bought a clown and a yellow watchman goby (ywg) for my nano.  Acclimated them and they both looked good in there.  After the first hour, I didn't see the ywg, but I figured he was just hiding.  After a week, I figured he was just really shy.  After 3 weeks, I figured he'd bought the farm  :( and the clean up crew had taken care of him.

Well, I was doing a water change yesterday, and noticed a shadow in the sump area - I assumed it was a sponge or something and the shadow moved ???.  It was awfully hard to see, but I grabbed a flashlight, and sure enough, 3 months later, my ywg had somehow gotten into the back chambers ;D.  Took me forever to catch him - looks pretty skinny but OK.

NO IDEA how he got back there - must have jumped the barrier when I had the lid up?

My clownfish use to do the same thing all the time. It's almost like when he was sleeping he'd get spooked and end up in the back chamber and your right it is a pain in the ass trying to get them out of there.
