![]() Yes, most wrasses are jumpers when spooked and some just have a death wish. Keep your tank covered.

![]() I was hoping not to put a cover on the tank as I don't like the look, in my reading it didnt mention jumping as a big concern but that's why I put the posting up! Thanks Anthony.
I will try and post a picture shortly. |

![]() It is definitely a JUMPER, I had one in QT with an open top. Found it on the ground all dried up, so it must've jumped over night.
The 2nd one I had I lost to an Ammonia spike. The 3rd and current one I have, which is still in QT, is doing great and LOVES Bristleworms. I pick them out from my fallow tank, and the first night I picked out a bunch of Bristleworms, he gorged himself on them. I thought his stomach was going to explode! Haha! They're a great fish with great personality!

![]() My mystery is the boss of all wrasses in my tank and I have a lot of wrasses. I think the mystery once established can be one of the most hardiest fish to take care of. Feed it well and it will never nip at your clams, but it can be nasty towards other wrasses specially if they are the same shape.
Love this fish.

![]() Mine was beginning to be a bit of a bully as well, so I pulled him out of the 25 Gal QT, and threw into the 5 Gal QT to teach him a lesson. He will be the last Wrasse that I will re-introduce into my BC29.
