    Well, I guess this is my fault for liking an open top tank but my only fish , my snowflake clown was on the floor this morning. My son is upset as am I . He was really starting to like this fish. I guess I need to get a net kit for the top of the tank if I am to get any more fish.  Rest in peace fishy.

    Those are pretty cool fish too. I also have a rimless tank....and am concerned about 'jumpers'...but even in my freshwater days....some fish are just bound and determined to see 'what's on the other side'... regardless of what's on top.

    Wow, it's odd this happens today of all days. My picasso was nowhere to be seen when I got home today. I found him in the back comparment of the tank where my skimmer is (I keep a BC29). Luckily he was fine. Had him since MACNA with zero issues.

    One of my 4 Picasso's jumped not too long ago out of my rimless frag tank as well. Except along with him I had 5 other fish jump within 4-6 weeks. Needless to say I have glass tops over the tank temporarily until I have the time to make mesh tops for them.
