![]() Ok, this is weird. I have had 4 fish jump from 4 different tanks in the last 10 days. I have a voltmeter, and can't find any stray voltage in any of the tanks. Two of the four tanks are mostly covered. Two of the fish were the alpha fish in the tank (they didn't get chased out). Is this some strange coincidence or what? Any ideas?

![]() All I know is fish jump, it sucks but it happens. I remember one tank I maintained would show weird patterns as well. One week there would be a different fish on the ground everyday then nothing for a year. I also got hit in the head once by a fish in the LFS.

![]() I "instinctively" caught a Volitans Lionfish midair that jumped. Won't do that again...
![]() I think it's just a coincidence, but I was hoping someone would think of something that I haven't already. |

![]() probably some pretty loud imaginative poetry, right after catching the lionfish.

![]() wow, ain't that a bit dangerous?
What other fish jumped? that is really strange in 4 different tanks. Could it be a lack of oxygen? At this time of the year he start to close the windows more and put up heating. If your water parameters are all fine, and there is no aggression, no stray voltage, nothing, then I really don,t see what can make them jump. Every time I had a fish jumped it was because of aggression, always. |

I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds. ![]() |

![]() I blew my coffee out of my nose when I read that,... It just happened to me a week ago, I was sitting on the couch surfing the web and a scissor tail jumped out of my cube and bounced off my head, it was a good 5 foot jump and caught me completely off guard...I was stunned and just sat there for a second thinking WTF was that before looking to my right and seeing it flopping around right next to me...
