Goby jumpers vs. Euro-bracing
Will euro-bracing defeat most goby jumpers? Or do I still need to add netting over the tank?

The only way to stop jumpers is w/ netting or some kind of cover, and even then some can still be a challenge.
I lost a pair of helfrichi's that somehow got through 1/4" bird netting, both the same night, but at least it will block most, most of the time.

So eggcrate did NOT work for QT of my Orange Diamond Goby... RIP
  however his replacement made it through 4 wks of QT (I double overlapped the eggcrate) and has been fine in my DT (with covers)
