Can you believe my little yellow virus wrasse made this jump from frag tank on the bottom to the sump

My overflow drain pipe has s screen on it so couldn’t get that way

Lucky jump!
After seeing my paracheilinus lineopunctatus hit the screen top and skip across the tank like a skipping stone.. I believe it. They leave the water with some force..
 
I have a lot of frags In my tank. Always buying a coral it seems everyday. I do dip everything but you know you can’t stop it all. I like to keep multiple wrasses in my frag tank but the only ones that seem not to jump is my sixline. All others I tired jumped within. A month. Wonder if I can keep 5 six lines in an 80 frag tank

Thinj the 5 will become one.. could you add a screen top?
 
I could but don’t like the look

I heard 5 will become one. But I might try

Got 4 yellow and 2 mata tangs in my frag tank. So I do like to push limits :)
 
Haha, I think you may just see a sixline jump if you try..
 
Oh I can believe it, they are very accomplished jumpers.

Imo a wrasse with no top is a bad plan. If you don't like lids, don't keep a wrasse.
 
I have had a sixline in my frag tank for 15 months. Maybe because they are tough little guys I find they aren’t the jumpers like some others
 
Did you mean to call dot a yellow virus wrasse or was that a Freudian slip? :D

Kidding, they’re cool fish I’ve always enjoyed mine. That’s quite an impressive (and lucky) jump!
