My gobie has to be taken out! I can't keep up with the messes he makes!
all my lower rock are almost completely white from the sand he drops all over!
All my lower corals have sand on them! So the big question is, how do i get him? He is very fast indeed! Now that he knows I am out to get him, he takes off when he see me approaching the tank, and goes under a rock that he dug a home under and gives me the fin!

Fish trap?

I had the same issue with my gold head... awesome fish, tons of personality, but had to get rid of him because of the mess.

I used a fish trap to catch mine.

Does the sand he drops mess with your frogspawn at all?

fish trap laying on the sand? did you use some kind of bait?

If the trap fails another option is to drain the water level into a rubbermaid down to an inch or so. Catch the fish and then refill it quickly. If your corals are healthy it shouldn't bother them much.

Or get a barbless trout hook and go fishing.
