Damsel Eating My Brain Corals

I have a black and white striped hum bug damsel that keeps eating my brain corals. I didn't realize that he was the problem until I lost two corals and then a third started to eaten as well. I thought that the corals were just dying because they were missing tissue and becomming just skeletons, but then I noticed the damsel eating them. I was able to save one of the brains by moving it into another tank and it seems to be happy. I have tried catching the damsel using a net, but because of all the hiding spots in my rock I haven't been succesfull. I am not sure what to do about this problem and I would deffinatly rather have the corals than the damsel. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.
