Catching an uncatchable fish

I have 2 clowns living in my overflow. I have a royal gramma living in my sump. Cant get to any of them due to spatial constraints.

:(
 
Had to tear my rockwork apart and use egg crate to split my 90G all for the last fish a BG Chromis that had a turbocharged tailfin. I tried multiple traps and baiting feeding and soad bottles... Finally went fallow 1 week ago only 10 more weks to go to get rid of a persistent Ich problem. 6 fish now in QT and doing great. Still trying to get my RBTA off the bootom of one piece of LR so I can put it all back together. She dig in pretty deep and I dont want to strees or damage her.
 
Sixline wrasse is pretty sharp and speedy. One of the hardest. My sixline was beating up on my new mystery wrasse, so I placed a suction trap and the mystery went in to hide. sixline couldnt resist went to the trap and caught.
For fish that dont hide in the rocks at night try this - wait until midnight, grab a reasonably bright torch, surprise the fish with torchlight and go in quick with a net. you might only get one chance but it works
 
A simple trick to catch fish, and dont wanna to disamble all the rock, what i do so far is drain the water completely, but this can be done when one have a container large enough to tackle the water from the tank, my DT only around 290 lt, so it t not too much water to drain. Just move some spot to let water settle in like in the low tide and most fish will try to fill the small pond.
