Fish catching tips in a reef.

[Nwhite]

I have a horrible scoups that murders everything!

Im needing to evict him and place him in my predator system. The only issue is, i really dont want to tear down my reef.

Im curious... could i dose melatonin 😴 in the reef lol would that work?

Fish trap and patient. Or if your tank is not huge you can drain partial of your water and it will make catching them much easier.

150 long. He just hides in the rock. So i guess maybe ill keep the trap in for as long as it takes.

Aggressive fish are easier to get into a trap. Steal your wife or GF makeup mirror and tape it outside the glass near the trap. Once he goes to war with himself, move it slightly into the trap. once he starts going in to get at him self. Move it deeper into the trap reflecting in from the outside glass. I've trapped mean fish like this. They are usually so agro trying to kill their reflection they don't even notice the door close.

Good luck!

That one works well. You have to be patient and sit there. May take multiple attempts
