Do fishes jump out of the tank? Do you need to put a cover on top of a rimless tank?

Wouldn't it look ugly to put a cover on a rimless tank? I think it would defeat the purpose of having a rimless tank.

depends on the fish.. for me, ang jumpers ay wrasses and gobies.. pero may tumalon na sa akin na firefish at dragonet..

screen, or a taller tank..lol, I've never had problems with fish jumping out when I was using a 16" tall tank, pero nung naglipat ako sa shallow 12" tall cube, tumalon na yung mandarin at YWG ko, buti nalang nasa bahay ako during those times at narescue ko sila.

I'm thinking of using a nylon mesh/netting on top of the tank pero hindi ko pa nagagawa kasi hindi ko mahanap yung tamang material

My wrasse jumped out just last Friday. Tuyo na sya nung nakita ko...

Kung may wrasse ka.. Kahit gaano kataas yung tank mo, tatalon pa din yan..

It seems that the only way to prevent jumpers is to use a mesh screen like this:

Pwede din acrylic tapos drill mo ng marami.. Nakakabawas ng light yung screen kung hindi clear..
