If your tank is packed with corals and whatnot, then you still run into the fish taking up hiding in the rocks. If he takes up hiding ABOVE the point where you want the water line, and you cant get to him, then you have another issue. Catching any fish in a stocked tank is a nightmare. I say 3 friends... 4 nets and a case of beer.

I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

he hides in one side of the 2 mounds in my tank, the top is one huge rock which as soon as you lift it off exposes the cave where he hides. 3 friends with 4 nets and beer will just break everything in my tank, you cant fit a fish box in the tank little own 1 large net without getting stuck everywhere is acro sticking out! I dont want this to be a camping excursion.... as soon as he sees nets hes in the cave. Thanks for the suggestion but I will stick to the original plan of draining the tank!

Just for reference, I moved my 75g SPS tank twice by draining it, carrying it to the van with all the rock, corals and fish in the tank. Total empty time about 1 hour. Draining it for 15 minutes in place is a breeze.

Back when I was trying to catch a longnose butterfly that developed a taste for polyps in my 90g SPS tank I used a bunch of peices of glass to cover up all but one of his escape routes. Then that night when he was sleeping I put a few more peices in behind his fav escape route that funneled into a small clear jug. The next morning when the lights came on for feeding all I had to do was stick the net in my tank and he took off to his fav hiding place full speed which made him bulldose into the jug. Then I just put my net over it and pulled the jug out.
0 corals damaged...
