okThe little crispy fish you find after they jump are good on pizza. Just like anchovies.
Sorry but they are wrong.my mom and dad say that its to expensive and i dont need it because fish are not stupid enough to jump out and kill themselves
i know... they said that once one fish dies, we'll get a lid, but i just dont feel comortable practically giving the fish a way to kill themselvesSorry but they are wrong.
glad they survived!I had a Diamond Goby jump through a small opening and a Red Head Solorensis Wrasse jump while I had the lid open during feeding.
Both times had occurred in front of me, fortunately they both were quickly recovered and placed back in with no issues.
You just never know.
great idea!I use Eggcrate. Just cut it to fit and allows evaporation. Lids wont.

Bad idea… many fish can jump right thru eggcrate …great idea!
Maybe smaller egg crate? I mean with smaller holesBad idea… many fish can jump right thru eggcrate …
Max. 1/4” opening …. Netting/window screen is best, do not use solid glass or acrylic.Maybe smaller egg crate? I mean with smaller holes
Home Depot = Plastic Eggcrate.Hi i am gonna get the 300XL Reefer tank (65g), and will get some basic fish - clowns, gobies, blennies, some wrasses, etc. Would i need a lid? I know i probably need a lid for the wrasse, however are there any wrasses that don't jump? Also I would appreciate any other ideas for stocking a 65g peaceful mixed reef!
Bottom line is....listen to Canucks....In addition to keeping your fish in the tank, a lid will also keep your SNAILS in the tank too! Mine love to climb up the glass and hang on the underside of the lid (a net top, BTW). I have 2 cut-outs in the top where my light rail mounts to my tank, and I usually find a snail or two that manage to escape through the gap every so often.
