Default Help! Agressive Fish

Hey, I have a biocube 14 packed with lots of liverock and corals. month ago I added a red coris wrasse juv. Realized it was too small for my tank and was agressive torwards my percula clownfish that was really small. I can never catch it. Now In my tank I have a saddle back clown. and it bullies the coris. So the coris never comes out any more. Im going to be adding a small bangaii cardinal and getting rid of the saddle back soon, and Dont want the coris to kill it. The coris burys itself in the sand, and Ive tried almost every trick in the book. If you can come and catch it, or give me a tip and I succeed using it, or give me something to borrow to catch it, the fish is yours to keep..

Thanks guys.. Heres my tank as of now: I cant move any rocks or move around too much since Ill break my sps.

I once had a yellow wrasseI had to catch. I capped a piece of 1" or soo PVC pipe about 3-4 inches tall and put it up rite in the tank. After a few days the wrasse couldn't help it self and had to investigate. It liked it so much it started sleeping in there lights off.. Fishnet over the top.. Wrasse caught

Got a pic of what you did?
Was the PVC faced up, or on its side? That could acually work

you have a biocube ? YOu can drain that sucker (into a tupperware container) right down to the sand. Scoop out the wrasse. Refill tank. Done.

Or a pop bottle cut open both ends and feed into it then net bottom once fish goes in or
My best tip is lights out and net they don't move much. Caught all mine this way.
