Eggcrate cover for Fairy Wrasse tank
Will an eggcrate over i.e. sitting dirctly on the lip of tank suffice to keep Fairy wrasses from jumping out?
The tank is a 120g 4x2x2 and will house sps and fairy wrasses (not all added the same time). The lighting will be RO3 pendants, but starting to think about Lumenarcs as well.

depends on size then, as my 5" pink margin is 'much' too thick for eggcrate to be a problem

At the store I work at we keep tons of wrasses, they jump all the time. I'd imagine many of them could fit through eggcrate, I've seen them jump out through small openings in the lid before.
