One should create the following: A plexi-glass panel with a door!
I've had a Purpleback Pseudochromis for over a year now and it has beat up on everything I ever put in the tank. It eats my shrimp, it drives my fish into hiding so I finally got fed up with it and decided to remove it. Now, the trick was to get it out without tearing apart my 20 reef... I remember seeing somewhere how to make what I did, but I think I modified mine... Here are some pics and how I did it:
1) I cut a 15.5" x 6" piece of plexi-glass
2) I then cut a piece out roughly 7" x 3" from the middle of the peice to make a door.
3) I then glued on some guides made of lighting crate so I could open and close the door quickly.
4) Placed it in the corner of the tank.
5) After feeding for 2 days in the top of the corner, I caught the fish!!!! I failed the first time because it jumped so I cut a piece of eggcrate to prevent that!!!
