Clownfish Jumping

[Puddin]

hi, has anyone experienced a clownfish jumping out of the tank, as mine did yesterday

 

[shibby]

ive heard of a few cases of them doing it yes!

 

[Puddin]

does anyone know of a reason why it would, as i know there are species that are notorious for it?

 

[shibby]

spooked by something or bullied most likely.

do you know that feeling where you just want to..... jump? Well....

It's my understanding that essentially all marine fish, except for seahorses, are known to jump.

Fish jump. Period. No tank cover = dried out fish. SH

Nothing like finding a dried up fish 3 months after you thought it died. Two Yellow Wrasses and a Sand-sifting Goby. Still wondering why that Goby jumped. A Sixline may have jumped too, I don't remember. Hey, look on the bright side, at least it wasn't your tank that killed it. And it didn't pollute your tank.
