Had a few Damsels come with a Coral/fish package deal and i should of never put them in the tank, they are pretty obnoxious and have moved sand up to 8 inches high and i keep moving the coral higher and higher so they dont bury it. I dont want to drain the whole tank but with 600 lbs of live rock to many places to hide ,i tried getting them to eat close to the top of tank so i could net them and there smarter then that .Any ideas ?
 
After countless tries I rented a fish trap from AP. The first of the two took less then a minute the second one was another story. I caught him pretty quick but when I tried to pull out the trap he jumped landing back in the tank After that fiasco he wouldn't go near the trap, after watching for few hours I walked away. The next morning as I was standing there thinking about my next move he decided to swim right in. Without a trap , I don't know, you'd probably have to break it down.

I just used some Tupperware with its lid. Cut a 1 X 1 inch square hole and fill with tons of food. Mine eventually went in and I put my hand over hole and pulled the Tupperware out.
