TOday this big guy jumped out of the tank- through the glass top! Luckily I was in the office & heard him flopping on the floor. Look closely you can see his chin, gill & side scales that got damaged from the incident.

Nice save, what did you put up there to keep him from doing it again?
 
Yikes!!! How far was it from the top of the tank to the floor? Jumps like that terrify me because I think of possible damage to internal organs. Never had any of my pbass do that, but I've had several dithers about 2 years ago that have died about a week later from internal injuries.
