My big guy went for another jump last night :( Broken glass everywhere :(

So today I made this to cover the tank. I made it out of scrap wood I had lieing around so it looks kind of dodgy. But you cant see it and hopefully it will get the job done.

I am planning to move this guy into a pond later this summer.

This is what the tank looks like now.

VERY little lighting which is a shame because now it doesnt show off his bright red fins :(

But this is how he likes it. He hates the light and I suppose this is better than nothing. The only way light can get through is through the little rectangular cut out.

He did actually get out of the tank. This is the 2nd time.

THis time it was hard because he went down the back between the wall and tank.

Here is a pic...

you sure it was the lights tha tmade him jump? Shame it doesn't like lights

Hood looks pretty sturdy as long as its secured somehow.

Yeah its a reall shame :(

He goes phscyo when the lights are on. But atm he seems to just be chilling since the lights are really dull.

However the lights were not on when he jumped out.

The hood or whatever you want to call it is secured down with bricks.
 
Damn, that not good! Can't you make anything out of clear plexi stuff; so that the light can still go through? Because I used it before and it doesn't break as easy as glass does. Anyway good look with your beautiful arow!

I could but he doesnt like the light. So I couldnt put it on anyway.
 
Ok, then it is quite unusefull. Maybe it's only the gowing on and off of the lights?
 
Damn Steve hope this big fella gets a little calmer...would be a shame to lose such a beautiful fish, all the best dude
