Jumping guard
A jumping guard prevents (nocturnal) fish from jumping out.
Wrasses, blennies, hawkfishs and gobies jump out of an unprotected tank in fright if their night rest is disturbed, unfortunately these jumpers are found dried up in the morning on carpets, glass edges or later behind the tank.

A small night light also helps, as it provides the fish with a means of orientation in the dark!

Über Mrutzek Meeresaquaristik konnte ich mir diesen schönen Fisch kaufen. In der Eingewöhnung ( sehr vorsichtig) unproblematisch, hat schnell Futter genommen (Artemia, Muschelfleich, Lobstereier und Granulat. Leider sieht er nicht ganz so schön aus wie auf dem Bild( denke die Farben hat er nur in der Balz ) Ist friedlich, leicht schreckhaft und neugierig. Kann ich jedem nur empfehlen.
