Need help catching a fish!

[kmbyrnes]

I'd need 3 more Brutes, which I don't need for anything else. So I'll try the $5 solution first.

You can always return the containers when your done. This goes for the OP too. Good luck!

Call your lfs and see if they have a fish trap to rent/borrow.

Thanks everyone! I tried the clear water bottle with the end cut off, and caught my 6 line!
My poor azure damsel won't go near it. He looks worse and worse each day. He's still breathing fast and now he's hiding a lot. Normally he's all over the tank.
I'm really worried about him. :-(

Cool, so I can buy it when you're done with it?..

Yep!

You do realize that the containers will be rinsed out though don't you? If all goes well they would have been filled with saltwater for what, ten minutes maybe?

I've tried the inverted cut bottle with luck for some fish and the small pet carrier worked for others.

Thank you for all of your help. I did catch my 6 line wrasse using the cut off bottle method. He went back to the LFS.
I was unable to catch my azure damsel, but sadly he was so far gone that he died tonight. :sad1:

Pouty lip and a tear...so sorry for your loss. They become like a member of the family, you notice habits and quirks that make you smile.
