    Wow that is too bad. Right now my fish are not jumping out (firefish...a few years back) but my snails are always trying to make a run for it. One day I came back to find 5 snails dried out behind the tank...

    Here are some pics of my yellow watchman. He seems to be doing great. Eating is no problem and he has now found a little cave to hide in and call home. (It was exactly where i wanted him to go) I still made up some lids to make sure he doesn't jump out, but so far he seems to have adjusted and the other fish don't bother him. Also, he is bright yellow with blue dots, he is much brighter than my camera makes him look

    Really sorry to hear about your goby. I know I was bummed when probably my favorite fish, a flame hawk decided to do the same

    those pics are of the second one, the first one didn't make it out of the quarantine tank, I think that was one of the reasons it jumped, because it was only 10gal. and no lr or sand
