Modern Reef Aquariums

I love the modern look of these tanks, and would love to do something similar in my planned upgrade. But I'm wondering, most of these are rimless with no obvious lid or cover. So, how do you prevent your fish from jumping?
Do you just completely avoid any fish that may be jumpers? From my understanding, all fish can jump if they're chased or startled.
Or is there some sort of cover that is less apparent that I could look into?

Thanks. It is 3ds max.
 
WZHANG - Nice peninsula design. My original idea for my system had the top enclosed too but then I decided against it. I wanted a more open feel since my tank is also a room divider.

One question, why does the tank have an overhang on the sides? It looks cool but I don’t see any benefits.
 
so you can enjoy watching your fish while you are fishing them :lol: :D

CHING: Thanks, I will give you a pm when I go to Thailand.....peace
