Catching Small Fish

[Anguilla82]

has anyone got any tips on how to catch small fish (i.e. 6 line wrasse and a firefish)
i'd like to move them on and just leave the pair of clowns to their own devices.
i've got a 24g nano thats full of live rock and corals that i don't really want to/can't move.
if i put a net in its just gonna get caught on the rock outcrops i think.

any ideas?

You can buy fish traps to catch them with.

Yup, give the fish traps a go first, but from my own experience the only way to catch them is to do a full strip down
Not what you wanted but youll only end up damaging things if you dont .

i agree, i've had to net my six line twice and both times i have to strip the tank bare before i could get it

mmm ok peeps.
will investigate the fish trap, but it looks a strip down then. not great considering i've just got it looking good!
