Suicidal tendencies of my fish...

[krcraig1]

Okay, so I've had a fairy wrasse about 6 weeks now. In that amount of time, he has jumped out of the tank twice, and jumped into the overflow once. :doh:

I must say one thing though, pretty resilient fish! Dumb, but resilient.

Do you have a mesh cover?

The fish is dumb? lol

For real, you are lucky that you have found him each time. Is anyone chasing him? Maybe harassing him? Either way get a mesh top before before he jumps and you do not see him.:sad:

He's definitlely skittish. He jumped once during a feeding, and jumped a second time when my son was cleaning algae off of the glass with the magnet. Not sure not sure why he went into the overflow.

Either way, I now have a plastic "eggcrate" over the top. I may end up replacing the with a mesh cover at some point.
