    catching a fish?

    If the tank isent to large, its faster and easer on the fish to just drain the water till you can scoop it out. Then fill it back up right away.

    Well thigs are starting to look better for the guy. I would try and move the shells back before the lights went out so he would least stand a little bit of chance at closeing and keeping stuff out. Today it seems the shells are starting to move back.

    is it true that you can give mandrin dragonets fish roe?

    Not sure that would be the best for that fish. Unless you watch him very well to see if he even eats its, thats not good diet for the fish and my die. Best bett is to spend 15 bucks or so and get a bag of copepods for him to eat and that should get you a good start on your pop populationas well.
