    Nice silver, try have as much water movement at tank mid levels and as little as possible at the surface and you will see him hunt and hover just under the surface plenty .

    It's nice that you allow him to jump for his food, usually people have low fitting lids to discourage them from jumping, but I don't think this is good practice, I mean they are not just called monkey fish by the natives for nothing.
