Ya, almost all gobies ime are jumpers. Some certainly less prone to it but they all can jump to some degree.

I'll need to take that into consideration since this is a pretty small tank. I have a watchman goby in my 90 and he never goes to the upper half of the tank so I don't really worry about it. Or maybe there is a good screen top option for this tank.

Well it looks like my 'upgrade' pump Sicce Syncra silent 0.5 does not fit in the pump chamber. I'm a little confused about this because saltwateraquarium.com sells the waterbox 10 cube with the syncra silent 1.0 pump as an optional upgrade package when purchasing the tank. I thought that the 0.5 would be a safe bet if the 1.0 model fits.
Sicce has a nano pump model, but it's rated for less GPH than the stock pump that came with the tank.

Thanks for the offer @Cake_Boss. Very limited on space in the pump chamber. The pump would need to have footprint smaller than 2.75x2.75 with output pointing up, if that makes sense. There is a glass baffle below the water line that reduces the pump chamber width by about .5 inch or so from the dimensions shown in photos. View attachment 14763 View attachment 14764
Wow, that is tight! What pump does the tank come with?

Went ahead using the stock pump for the setup. It's quiet, so that is nice.
I put the Sicce pump in the sump for my 90 gallon. It turns on and off with the MH lights. It'll stir up detritus in the skimmer section of sump. View attachment 14765
