get rid of damsels?

[derxz]

i cannot do it, i have 70lbs of LR in my 46 gallon tank. They see the net and run for days. Is there an easier way to get them out? I seen someone selling some secret how to remove any fish you'd like in your aquarium easily on e*ay. Anyone know?

Pull your rock out, that is the way I did it took a little more time but they have no were to hide.

fast lil buggers arnt they...
i agree with ntrigger... you gotta take all the rock out, take out anything they can hide behind.. then theyre a cinch.
or you could go fork over some cash for a fish trap......... and wait...... and pray, if youre that sort......

pull all your rock out i had to 180lbs of rock for 1 fish....then i rescaped the rocks so it worked out....

don't feed them for a couple of day's then cut a 2 liter empty cleaned out coke or pepsi bottle big enough for them to swim in. Put some food in it and just wait they will go in but have a hard time getting out.

cut the bottle so that the end where the screw cap was is facing the bottom of bottle. then tape it back to other part.

i ve got a 120 reef thats been up for years. i dont even worry about the damels. i fact when people catch them they most likely go into my reef. i have a very heavy load with fish and corals but you need the equipment to keep a heavy load mainly water. damels are agressive but when you got about 10 they settle down.

You either have to take the rock out or make a trap like some of the others have mentioned.
