I lost a firefish the same way.Jumped through the eggcrate and found him shrivled up on the rug.Looked pretty nasty all dried out,even the cat wouldn't touch him.Never heard of aquarium lights causing fish to jump,exept when they are first turned on.But if thats the only thing different,maybe thats what it is.

I had problems with jumping fish when I tried to silicon a leak....Apparently when wet silcon comes in contact with the water it makes your fish jump crazy!!!

Weird.... I just installed by 2X250W MH over my 90 tonight and some interesting things happened. My corals shrunk and my new anemone stood at attention... as I had expected. But my clowns started taking wild runs at the surface. So did a watchman goby. I've had them for over a year and a half and have never seen them do that. Got the lights set to come on for alternate one hour cycles tomorrow....

I'm worried about my day at work now......

eggcrate huh? I'd better invest some more.
