Two Fish jumped out of the tank

I just discovered another one jumped out. I had a Flameback Angel jump 2 weeks ago and a carmel clown today. They both jumped out the back of the tank.

Sorry to hear that Bob, that's never a cool thing to come home to. Mabe it's time to look into one of those net cover things.

Time to build a net Bob, just like the one at the golden gate.

Thats a bummer, I guess its part of going rimless Bud. Sorry for your loss. Time to do a screen cover for the tank.

Sometimes they will do this if stressed or unhappy. I would check water readings and water flow.

Thats a real bummer. i had sme fish suicides not to long ago. its never fun to come home to dehydrated fish on the floor.

I think i need a screen or something for the back of the tank. They both jumped out the back. i test my water quite consistently and if the acros are happy i would think the water quality is good enough for the fish.Definatley not a water quality problem.

Maybe you have some aggressive fish.

I put a psychedelic mandarin in my frag tank sump and my aggressive yellow tail damsel that I isolated there decided to be aggressive and must have scared my mandarin into jumping out.

Sorry for the loss. And if it was the purple tang, i would not know what to say. Hang in there.
