I love my Tidal 110... EXCEPT...

I am having issues due to specific fish. I have a few kinds of fish that insist on swimming/jumping UP THE SPILLWAY of the filter.

1. dwarf neon blue gobies
2. Taiwanese micro dragons
3. Hong kong hillstream loaches
4. longfin albino bristle nose pleco

I lost 1 dragon, and one longfin albino bristle nose pleco

trying to find a better way to block them.

right now I have some plastic mesh, but it's obviously not working.

anyone else have issues with fish swimming up into the hob filter reservoir?

how do you solve this problem ??

The only time I've ever had a fish get in the hob filter, was a female convict who was getting bullied to death by her mate because he wanted to spawn. She was going anyplace she could to get away. Is there some fish in the tank driving them to escape like that? Seems like unusual behavior ime, esp for the pleco
 
Cut a piece of course 10 ppi foam and just put it in the spillway. Done.
