    true they all can jump

    note to self- install safety nets around fish tanks like the ones on kids trampoline.

    :)

    maybe I stick with royal grammas, scooter dragonet

    would not recommend multiple grammas, will probably fight.

    Only get a scooter if it will eat frozen or flake food(some only eat live copepods), your tank is too small to support it naturally.

    The gramma may or may not eat them, but they would work otherwise
