Did you try to baffle the filter?

Yikes...Yes they can jump and I had Perseus over a month before I saw him jump, he had his nose on the surface of the water and all of sudden jumped three times in a row I was so excited to see that ! Good thing I always keep the lid to his tank on except at feeding time and now he has started to jump abit for his food. Happy to hear your little guy is okay.

yeh, mine right now is baffled too. there's still sound of water and a bit of mechanical sound, and when there are a few filters running at once in the same room it's a bit much for me. u especially get to appreciate the silence during the cleaning time when u turn everything off and notice such a huge change lol

idk, maybe it's just me :)

lol if i dont drop in the food fast enough, my fish would jump out and bite my fingers (and sometimes snatch the food too).

they are surely enthusiastic creatures!

LOL yeah, myfilter obviously isn't as strong as yours. I can hear it faintly but I increased the water level and baffled it so it doesn't bother me any more. I understand tho haha
