Don't ever put a clown goby in a sps tank!! Now i need to catch a 1 inch clown goby.

What would be a good, safe and cheap tank devider? Egg crate is too large of a hole. Need something 24x24 that won't scratch the glass.

Luckily my tank is BB. I have 3 islands in my DT. Plan is to devide off 1/3 of the tank where the goby is, remove one island and catch the little SOB.

Thanks

Maybe the plastic mesh they have at fabric stores for cross stitching?

What about a piece of eggcrate, but covered and tie wrapped with fibreglass bug screen ?

Fiberglass bug screen? Is it reef safe?

In my search I found some white plastic sign board. Looks like plastic cardboard. Seems to be 100% plastic, very light and can be cut to size with a razor blade.

Think this will be reef safe?

You haven't got that out yet?? What are you doing? Just drain the tank and grab it. Done.

I think for the 15 mins it will be in the tank anything that is clean will work.
