I have a red corris, checkerboard, lunare, and cleaner wrasse. I've had them for awhile now and I admit that I forgot how much wrasses were prone to jumping until I read up about bird wrasses.

My wrasses are in QT right now with a fully covered top since it's a short QT tank, however my display tanks are 3 feet high, I wonder if that makes a difference as to why mine haven't jumped yet, or if I've just been lucky so far.

Anyways when I was reading up about wrasses the ones I have didn't come with many jumping warnings whereas every single website I read warned about bird wrasses jumping. Just curious as to why.

Not sure if I'll ever get one or not as I also read they will eat small fish (not sure how small of fish, the web sites just said small) but I was curious about them.

Once the QT period is over for my fish I will be limited as to what type of fish I will be able to keep with my King angel (assuming she lives), she's somewhat mean to others, however she seems to leave the wrasses alone.

Anyone on here ever had or has a bird wrasse?
