Default Fish Trap

Hi Is there anybody in Calgary and area that could loan or sell me a Fish trap for my saltwater tank? I have a problem fish that needs to be removed. I am devastated that all my Zoa's have be eaten. If you can help Please contact me, at your convenience. I would really appreciate it. If i cant catch it, i am going to sell the 110 Gallon tank and be done with it. That is how desperate i am. Thanks!

Don't quit.
I had one of my fish that did the same thing. Let's just say I caught him in time.

Default fish trap

Hi Emily, Thank you for getting back to me. Its a blue Damsel, its quite fat. I have seen the traps in Pisces but, they want 40-50 bucks. I am reluctant to pay that when i only have one problem fish. The trap i saw was a Aqua medic make. Thanks again. look forward to hearing from you.

Sounds like a no brainer to me. $40-$50 to get rid of a fish thats been eating what sounds like many more dollars in zoas. + im sure you could resell that trap for almost what you paid for it.

Or you could just take the water out. Free. Less than 30 minute job.

Yah, mine's too small. It's for a narrow long fish. I got it for a dottyback.

I have a critter keeper trap we made to catch the bangaii babies. That might work - it's not pretty.....

Just noticed your post. It's been a few days, did you get a trap or get the fish out? Aq's suggestion to empty the tank is a good one if you want to go down that route. If not, I have a fish trap you can borrow. Let me know.
