Community fish that don't jump?

Anyone know what kinds of freshwater community fish are ok for an open top aquarium?

I am assuming Ottos and Corys, which I have. But what about others? Anyone here have any experience with this?

Thanks!

Re: Community fish that don't jump?

perhaps bottom dwellers are the best bet and maybe loaches or glass cats? i'm not sure - we've not had any open top aquariums before.

I think that all the fish can jump but it depends on how high they can get and what not. What size of tank is it? I would think that angelfish or barbs would be a nice contribution to that tank.
