Ha! I just caught the two fish that were making my life miserable. The royal gramma would bully any new fish (and killed a couple), and the african flameback was harassing my sps. When I got in from work this evening, I said "self, since you are sitting here having your evening coffee, why not try to catch them?". Put the trap in, loaded the bait............and I had both out in less than 10 minutes total. Flameback got caught first and removed, then the gramma got bold when I put the trap back in, and boom! I had him as well. Both have been moved to the aggressive tank. Nothing in there they can hurt, and my peaceful reef is peaceful once again.

I'm sure my twinspot goby is much relieved to be able to rototill without being nipped and pestered. And my sunset monti is already extending its' polyps again. Never again will I put an angel in my reef, and there will be no more royal gramma's here either.

I have 14 little fish in my 75 gl tank now none bigger then 1 1/2 inches, two of them are the blue damsel fish. One of them (the bigger of the two) was a bully! I didn't know a little fish could be so aggresive! But for some reason the rest of the little guys had enough of him and now he hides out around the tank away from all of them....Lol

Congrats....I have 2 of JTs traps and have yet to try and catch my tangs...

I know it's going to be a pain though..... Cause my huge vlaminigi is very timid... But then again he loves food.
