I was afraid of jumpers that why I added the duck weed.... I was thinking neon and black neons......also thought of angels but are angels known to jump?......rainbows crossed my mind but I've heard they are know to jump as well
 
Duckweed isn't enough to stop jumpers, if anything I'd go with either frogbit or dwarf water lettuce. But then you have to worry about if the plants are getting sufficient lighting...

Angels aren't know to be jumpers, but will turn neons into a snack down the road. If you're really set on getting angels then I would get cardinal tetras because their big enough to not get eaten.
 
Ducked can cover the whole top of a tank within a few months ...... it will work as well if not better then frog bit or Water lettuce
 
Only problem with Duckweed though is that you can basically never remove once its inside your tank... so while yes it may serve its purpose, if you ever want to rid yourself of it, then good luck...
 
I have had duckweed in other tanks and it was never a problem for me to remove

How does 4 angels....15 black neons and 20 neons sound ?
 
I've never had neon or cardinal tetras jump on me. It's usually the top dwellers like danios and rasboras. Have some large floating plants. It helps alot.
