whoa. these guys sound really determined. I think Ill go with the eggcrate lid and then get a canopy for my tank when i have the time to make it in the summer.

thanks for the input!

They can jump right thru the eggcrate. I bought a mesh reptile tank cover. It has smaller mest than eggcrate, but not so small the fish can jump thru.

maybe construct some kind of lid using "gutter guard" material they have smaller holes than egg crate. I've seen in Home Depot they have the plastic type material but it's only about 6" or 8" wide but few meters in length you could just sew it together then make a frame type lid. It'll look ghetto but will prevent jumpers escaping and will still have a good area for air to come through. Just a suggestion
