Default annoying fish Part 2

Hi All, Still haven't had any success catching this fish! HEEEEEEEEEEEEELP! Please. Do the traps in the fish stores even work? They are like 40 plus bucks. I don't want to pay that and find it doesn't work. Cn anybody loan me one maybe?

easiest way to catch any fish is to simply drain your tank down to the last inch or two of water then simply scoop or net him up. be careful he doesnt hide in a rock whie you drain or other fish as well


can be drained in 15mins and filled within 15mins

drain half of ur tank water, turn off power head /return, pump wait for 40 minutes. check if the damsel looks slow to respond. if yes net them asap. that's what I did last time when I ewas doing epoxy the frags in the tank, saw them laying on the sandbed. mayb the epoxy effects?
