This is something that alot of us could use. Very promising!8)

 

very handy indeed

 

boy i wish i would have seen this before i spent 6 hours tearing my tank apart to catch a sailfin and a seabea clown. talking about fast little buggers.

I bought two of them this morning.

 

I just use the old drop door trap and it works fine unless the fish has been trapped before LOL once bitten I guess . You can always tell the once trapped fish as he is the one you could not pay to go in there no matter how long its been since he ate. I had a Purple tang once that was trapped and moved twice it was like 10 days since last feeding he still would not go in . But the little gold fish hook worked. He was all over the bait less then 3 mins to hook him. This one has been around for 30 yrs and I know it works they can be found for less and come in two sizes

I have luck so far taking fish out of my tank, but definitely would love to set a trap to get my pistol shrimp!!!

 

Waiting till your fish DIE, doesn't constitute as luck, Joe.

 

Non of them die in my tank!!!!
I take them out befor when they look sick.
Plus almost all my casualties are fish that seem to be comfused with birds!!
Good to see you posting!
