I got the fish out!!!
Black clarkii is now making it's way to the LFS tomm!
I hope I didn't stress him too much...
For all that might have a similar situation in the future, here is what I did:
Since I don't have an anemone, it tends to hang out with the torch a bit...At night he does it a bit more unless I mess with it like last night...
SO, today I went to the dollar store and got a clear tupperware container, I placed lid under the sand, blew off the edges and placed the torch in the middle (basically on top of the lid)...I then dug the container into the sand a bit so it wouldn't float...Then I slowly lowered it till I knew I could get it closed faster than he could move. Then I just snapped the lid and done!
Proof, man is still smarter than fish! (barely!)
