I purchased a OrangeSpotted goby yesterday for my 55 gal. tank. All last night he/it was working its magic.
This morning he/it was laying right in front of the tank, dead of course.
I was told I don't need a top on my tank, above are my T-5 lights.
I wish they would have told me he might jump out. I've only had my tank since May 2007 and am just starting to ad some fish. It was like throwing $40.00 in the trash, which I can't afford. It took me long enough to save for the tank, lights, and the 2 small aneomies I have. I read nothing about them jumping.
Are they known for high jumps?
