Right now we have a mesh lid with a few openings for lights/feeder/etc. Woke up today to a Midas laying on top of the mesh lid. Guessing he jumped through one of the small holes and got stuck on the mesh. Got him in a separate container right now to see if it makes it back, but not looking great.

Since these fish can only get a certain amount of vertical distance, I’m wondering if anyone makes a frame/lid that is basically a 45 degree angle plexi, to form a sort of open pyramid? This would allow the top to stay fully open but, assuming the sides were tall enough, nobody could make the jump out.
