Default Jumping Pseudacanthicus

Hi all Pseuda lovers, i am sure you guys have heard stories of someone's pseudas found dried on the floor...
Well, i have seen it with my own eyes as well on a friend's fish...
Not a good sight to be honest.
Anyway... for those who have not "kenna yet", may want to take some precaution....
Here, i am sharing a video taken by an AF member (thanks for sharing bro ) showing how psuedas actually trying to jump out of a braceless tank in LFS, luckily the tank was covered.
The dried fish that i witnessed actually jumped out from a center opening and not from a braceless scenario.
There are many speculated reasons such as stress, fighting, or bad water condition, whatever it is, this post acts a reminder to giant pseudas owners.

enjoy

so far i think only a few seudas actually "jumps" ...
L25 is the first... and best jumper...

the other i see is L273.. at least for mine...
always swiming upwards like a tig when the lights are off..

the rest... seldom see them appearing at the upper half of the tank..
usually rest and relax somewhere among the driftwoods
