It kinda sucks but for last 4 months, I've lost grade A picasso clown, and a pair of snowflakes. They've all jumped out. The only survivor is my six-line wrasse. I need to get a screen. Has anybody lost clownfish from jumping??
 
I'm sure many have, but I don't know how many will admit to it. The only safe way to keep ANY fish is to have a screen cover over the top of your tank. I've lost a sixline also back years ago when I didn't have a cover. It's better to be safe than sorry.
 
i lost 2 ORA black and white clowns to the leap.....never again, i have screens!
 
I've lost one. I found him a few days later as a B&W Clownfish Chip on the floor... Come to think of it - I really need to make a screen. Weekend project.
 
i lost one snowflake! and that just started the bad luck with the snowflakes!

i also lost a helfrichi firefish i never seen it dead in the tank or on the floor!
 
Ive never had any fish jump thankfully. I try not to spook them my tank is a pretty calm community all my fish swim together and stuff
