    I've heard firefish like to jump. I was thinking about getting one, but I'm not sure if I'll have room for one or not. So I'll probably pass!

    Yellow Wrass or Dragon Wrasses are cool fish to gaze on, They are by far the best swimmers, check them out.

    All most all marine fish are jumpers if startled enough. When I was working on the wholesale MO side the first day my boss showed me why we didn't turn the lights off on the facility all at once. He turned them off and we had 40 fish on the ground...tangs, angels, clowns, blennies, gobies, etc. Some fish do have a stronger disposition to flight up though, like wrasses, firefish and anthias.
