My small occ clown has found himself stuck in the overflow, he jumped in there.
it's 8 gallons and has sink traps on the plumbing so he can't get very far and he seems quite comfortable.

How do I get him out without draining the whole thing and causing a mess.

I tried tricking him with some repeshy food (his favorite) and my net.
obviously that didn't work.

that's an old photo from when I first set up the tank.
60 gallon starphire cube.

Is he small enough to siphon out with a large diameter hose?

put a net under the drain the the sump. and pull the stand pipe.

[Aysha]

no he's not quite that small he's about 1.5 inches
Marco, that's what I've been pondering about but it looks like a pain and a long drop.

My wrasse ends up in mine once & awhile.. usually get 99% of the water out of the overflow, then just use the net...
