    Default Midas Blennies - Jumpers?

    Has anybody who has kept one of these fish lost them to jumping?

    At first I thought it was a killer crab, but after not catching anything with a trap for 10 days and not ever actually seeing it, I'm wondering if its jumped as I can see behind the tank at the back.

    They are known to jump imo, i had three and lost one of them to this, also know another fella who lost his to this too, been told if they are kept in a group though they get less spooked....
