Fishing time!

Hmm ill go fish trap.

 

Next time you do a water changed, do as big a one as you can... Then give it a shot. It's easier w/ less water in the tank IMO. Definitely easier with a extra pair of hands helping ya out though.. Maybe snail boy? I'm sure he'd lend a hand lol. But yeah, try what JLL said too.. I did that with my shrimp, along with lowering the water.

Hate to tell ya, but it's probably just gunna be easiest to take out a few rocks though...

 

Yea I might just get rid of his little cave... We will see what I can do. This I think is my least favorite part of they hobby.

 

you could also try turning on all the lights in the middle of the night. sometimes, the fish are caught in a daze like humans are when they are waken up during a heavy sleep. from there, try netting them. HTH.

 

Thats a really good idea! but he sleeps way back int he rocks ugh this fish sucks.

 

small fishing hook and nip the barb off worked for me ;D

 

haha I dont want to hurt the fellow its not his fault he has the munchies... I just want him to stop eating my coralllls !!!

 

It didnt hurt mine as long as the barb is off of it and she is still doing well at the LFS. the barb is what really makes it rough for the fish the point isnt all that bad IMO but there are other traps that work to ;D

 

hmmmm I dunno tomorrow is the day I catch him my bubble can't take much more of this

 

Clear plastic bag - thread fishing line around the mouth through a slipknot on the end, give yourself enough line so you can sit far enough from the tank where the fish is not suspicious. Put the bag in the tank (weigh it down with some rock rubble), and put some mysis or other tasty snack in there. When the suspect goes in the bag, yank on the line so it closes the mouth of the bag.

I had to remove an angel from my 150 a month ago that was nipping coral. Spent an entire night trying to net him, with the plastic bag I had him in under 10 minutes.
