i had three little damsels less than an inch, the ones that the LFS sell real cheap, any ways i kept trying to add clowns to the tank and all the clowns kept dieing on me, i went through 5 clowns, finally took all the rock out to catch the

[hr]
, returned them to the LFS bought 2 more clowns and still have them to this day, the LFS told me the damsels dart at the fish and hit them with there heads rupturing the fishs swim bladder killing them. never had any problem's after i got rid of them, hard to believe that a small fish like that could be so much trouble

Use the coke bottle technique. It worked for me within about a hour.That was one bully I wanted out of my tank.

i put my net in the water then feed very small amounts, when it goes for the food net him, it takes a little bit of time but i have always got what ever i was after in under 1/2 an hour. if you put your net in the tank for a while before you try the fish will kinda get used to it.

Same here, but I opened up the entire top and fed with flakes and used a quick scope method with a BIG net. This has worked several times for me.
Greedy feeders are a sucker for their stomachs.
