    Default Fish Trap

    I am having problems with a few damsels in my tank and I would like to get them out without tearing up the rockwork. Does anyone have any experience with these fish traps for sale on the internet and do they work? If anyone has one I can borrow or rent please let me know that would be great!

    I heard you can make one fairly simple using plastic bottles. From what I heard they work better than the commercial fish traps. But must admit I have never used any kind at all.

    Tried making one with a plastic bottle and it failed terribly. Had to borrow a trap from another member that was similar built to the commercial traps and finally got my fish out

    I made one with a water bottle yesterday to move my Sergeant Major damsel over to the new tank and it worked great.

    Reefing is just like cooking, all the ingredients have to be just right , except you don't have to bring the water to a BOIL...
