One thing I'm still struggling with is how to remove the damsel in my tank. He hasn't been as much of a bother as I thought he would, but he still bullies my clown every once in a while. I also think he eats a lot of the bugs that live in and on the rocks that I want to save for other fish (like a mandarin goby) that ONLY eat that stuff, so he's got to go.
I made an attempt to use the bottle trick a while back, but failed miserably. The trick is to cut a liter bottle in half and tie it to some string. You then put the bottle in your tank for a week so the fish gets used to it, and then put some food in the bottom of it. The fish goes in to get the food and BAM you pull the bottle up trapping the fish. My damsel never got used to the damn bottle. Wouldn't go near it even after I loaded it with shrimp. Anyways, here are some pics of the rig...
