Has anyone else with a Fluval Evo had a problem with clownfish jumping out? I lost one last night, and this is the second time a clownfish has jumped out in the ~5 years I've had the tank. I guess I should cover the little opening in the front. Does anyone have good ideas for what to use to cover it?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,

I can’t answer the specific question, but I can maybe bump the thread for you to see if we can get you some help
 
I have the same tank and when I still had the stock lid on, I just taped a small piece of screen over the opening. It worked great and still allowed for gas exchange & fresh air. I didn't use the hole in the lid for feeding much though - I would just lift the side of the lid and feed that way.
I have since upgraded the lighting and purchased a clear acrylic and screen lid from Kraken Reefs. It's awesome and you can choose whether you want feeding holes or not.
 
Thanks. I'll try the screen.

Cheers,
