Fish jumping out of tank

[tqut]

i run a rimless 3ft tank and have lost some fishes due to jumping. The latest victim is my kole eye tang that I've had for about 4 months

Are there any other ways of preventing fish from jumping other than adding a cover to the tank?

Buy fish that don't have a reputation of jumping.

If cant avoid jumpers, don't mix aggressive fishes to lessen jumpers being harassed to jump.

I don't have aggressive fishes in the tank, 2 clowns, 1 pink streak wrasse, tail-spot blenny and 2 anthias

Previously, I lost some anthias and wrasse to jumping. I'll go DAMA later to get acrylic to cover the top

I lost a wrasse, 5 Scissortail dartfish, think when lghts go out they were chased and jumped out of tank ...resorted to using egg crates to cover -sectioned into 3 peices....for my seven footer...but i enlarge the holes to allow more lights in

My Kole Eye Tang was the biggest & most aggressive fish in the tank, so maybe it was chasing another fish and accidentally swam too fast and cannot brake when he hit the water surface...

Sometimes, it is the human that causes the fish to jump not the fish in the tank. Sudenly turn off the light, large noise, etc..... My butterfly fish jumps too.... casued by me ......
