Ok so I lost my 3rd yellow coris today from jumping.  The first 2 were in my 30 gallon with a mesh top.  This last one was in my 12 gallon with a tight fitting glass lid!!!  I have no idea how it got out, just blows my mind!  Do these fish have super escape powers? Super cool fish but I think Im done with them for now. Smile  Sorry just venting...
 Also lost my large clam today, kind of a crappy day.

That's insane! I have one in my 30 gallon rimless frag tank with nothing covering the top and he has been in there for a long time and I have had a lot of these guys in the past without jumping problems. 

Sorry to hear about that man.
What?! You pooped in the refrigerator, and ate the entire wheel of cheese?! I'm not even mad.... That's actually amazing!

Yes that's the one! I think pyramid snails finally did it in. I battled those things for months

Kevin;

Try a Green Coris Wrasse next time.  They will eradicate Pyramillid snails extremely fast
