How often do fairy wrasse jump?

My Lubbock's often hit his head on the eggcrate, and jumped right through it several times. Once, while my husband was home watching TV, he made it all the way to the floor without making a sound; it was only the cats' strange behaviour that alerted my hubby to the fact that something was wrong. Hubby panicked but managed to catch the flopping wrasse, who was unceremoniously dumped back in the tank covered in cat fluff. I didn't count on this happening again, but it did -- fish just don't learn; eventually the wrasse jumped when nobody was home to rescue him :(
 
For the clear netting, realize it DOES block light going into the tank. It's not as bad as say a cover (even clear acrylic ones) OR egg crate, but it WILL cut down on the light going into the tank (I know I took my PAR meter out and measured all the different types).

My solution (which is also in the fairy wrasse humongous thread):

This option cut down the least amount of light of anything that I tried... and even it cuts down a small amount.
