Default catching a fish

i have a 72g reef tank, full of corals and rocks. I need to catch the skunk clown fish and put him in the sump for a while - too aggressive to my new maroon. does anyone know a easy way of catching him?
thanks

I have caught damsel fish using a baited nonbarbed fish hook. It only took me a few minutes.
