Firefish

[Nate0712]

I just got a firefish from the LFS tonight and i have an open aquarium is this a huge problem or can I live with it for a while

Good luck...what else is in the tank with it?

The clowns could turn a lil aggressive towards him...but hopefully they don't scare him out. Good luck with him.

Are you asking if the firefish might jump out of your open top aquarium? If so, there's a chance, but I had one for about 6 months with no suicide jumps and then one day it disappeared on me and I never saw it again, so I don't know if it jumped to its death or it just died of unknown reasons.

ive had a purple firefish in my tank since before the upgrade , never needed a cover hes been real cool and if he senses danger he has a hole in a piece of rock he goes into

50/50 chance thought

having 3 fish in a 20 gallon long isnt over stocking is it?

it is but you will probably be ok
