Anthias for my reef?

So I'm almost done sanding/buffing out all the scratches in my 55 Tru Vu acrylic I got free from a friend. I'm downsizing from a 90g reef.. I already have a yellow tang(small been with my for 3+years) and a algae blenny. I'm thinking of getting one or two square block anthias.. would these be a good addition to the reef? The 55 won't be setup for a few weeks and I won't be adding these for a month or so.. Just curious about them I read they like to jump and I can't leave the acrylic cover over the tank due to MH and heating issues=) Think I'd be ok with one or two or are they good jumpers that will end up on the floor or stuck to a MH?Thanks
Dan

anthias

I have a Bi-color anthias in my 55 gal. tank, and Yes they are jumpers!. Mine jumped out one night, and luckly i saw it happen. It cleared the top of the tank by a good foot and landed on the carpet. I quickly scouped it up and put it back in the tank. If your thinking of getting an anthias for a 55 gal tank, I would stick with one only, because they get to be about 3-4 inches long and require space to swim. and yes cover the tank. Good luck check out my pic gallery to see pictures of my Bi-color
