Default Tank divider

I have had luck with putting an tank divider from Big Al's

Basically get the fish on one side and put the divider in

Let him slow down a bit and go in for the catch

This way you only have to move a few rocks...well I guess it depends on your tank layout...

Good luck!

I came up with an ingenious and incredibly effective way to catch fish, especially tangs. I cut a small eggcrate wall, and use zip ties to create a hinge that attached to another piece, the door. I just place that in the sand bed to essentially create a "run", and leave it in the tank for an hour. Get your seaweed into the tank near the edge of the run, and slowly move it in, then when they swim in, you just close the door. The run is about as wide as my net, so it makes catching very easy!
