Hi there..been a while since I posted here.

I have an open top tank and have for 3 years now. Here are a few good options for you...

- Goby/Shrimp combo (I have a Yellow Watchman with a Pistol Shrimp)

- Blue or Green Reef Chromis

- Dwarf Angels (Cherubs, Flamebacks, LeMark)

- Dottybacks (I had a neon dottyback for 2 years, finally traded him in. Cool fish but can be agressive)

- Basslets - I have a Black Cap Basslet

- Tangs - but your tank is too small

All fish will jump. I've even had a yellow watchman goby jump. And these seem like they'd be the least likely because they just stay at the bottom all the time.

ya... all fish have the ability to jump. Get a screen made. You can DIY one for 10 bucks.

This ^^^

 

Here's my 40b, using this exact method. Clear screen from BRS.

Understandable you guys to make a top. Also, I can't make a top..there are cable going in the tank...so there is gap regardless......

 

So topless is not not a trend anymore/

 

thanks for others for the suggestion.
