I just purchased an anemone which was attached to a live rock so I brought both. Low and behold, as soon as I placed it in the display after 30 min acclimation period, a LARGE yellow tail coris wrasse pops out! I don't know where it was hiding. Anyway, I have read that they could be quite destructive. Any suggestions on how to catch him?

If you decide you don't want it I'll gladly take it, mine died a few weeks ago.
