You can try some of the fish traps out there. In my experience, I have tried to get three different fish out of my tank and every time I have have to take out half the rock to trap and net the fish. You just need to get about 1/4 or 1/3 of the tank cleared.

I'll answer the same way Hector (Tropical Aquarium) answered me. Ever been fishin'? How do you catch fish? He has super small hooks & very fine line at his store that he uses to remove unwanted fish from his display tank. Claims it never fails with mysis shrimp.

The fishing idea works great. It took me about 5 minutes to get one of my greedy tangs out of my 100 gallon reef! :thumbsup:

Was in the same situation as you, had a three stripe damsel in my 75 that started to attack anything smaller than it. Made a diy trap out of a little water bottle and a fish line at the mouth of the bottle to pull it out. Took me less than 1 hour to get catch that damsel.
