Fish Trap

[trbike24]

I just bought a Picasso Clown and my Chromis is picking at it. Anybody have any ideas on a fish trap or would a trap be a waste of time? I can't let this little purple fish win.

Can ya just scoop it out?

I tried. Me and my dad had a net in there, but hes seen the net before and darts straight into the rocks and doesn't come out. I'm leaving town tomorrow so I don't want to leave him in there.

I've heard of people using a tiny fish hook with the barb removed.....I haven't used this method personally.

Nevermind.....I got him. I took my rocks out and moved my corals and got him. He was only the fastest fish I have tried to catch.

Sounds like frustrating work, but good job catching him. Other than the time I caught my way-too-trusting maroon clown (bait and net), rock removal has been the only way I ever caught a saltwater fish...or behemoth worm...
