fire goby is a shy fish. always love to hide between the rock. It the fish is being chased or scared by someone, high posibility of jumping suicide is there.

Normally when fish jump out from the water it means the water param is not good. It is trying to escape from the suffering. Fish shouldn't feel hyper if the water condition is friendly and healthy for them.

I got 1 at home, not shy...swims around, even snatch bits of pieces of shrimp from my hand when I feed my anemone and sun coral..but the fin doesn't stand up all the time..
