    Ok so I have a delectus dottyback, I named him satan after he killed gerald right in front of me. I've had him now for a while, and I have finally come to the conclusion that he just wants to kill everything that dwells in my fish tank. So i made the decision I want him dead but im probably not lucky enough for that to happen, i need him caught without tearing my tank apart. So if anyone has a good idea on how to make a affective trap let me know!!!! Happy Reefing.

    Just used the 2l trick took me under an hour to catch my clown fish. My female got a little out of hand which also killed everything I added to my tank..

    What's the 2l trick? Ha ha

    Maybe our perspective on Jesus is different because my delectus dottyback does nothing but kill things ha ha My goby didn't even last two minutes in my tank before he got pulverized by the delectus

    ha ha git it now, true to that, Jesus saves us when we need it most. yeah the dottyback just makes me angry looking at him, he's red and black and that even makes me more angry. too bad i don't have a toaster that'd get rid of him.

    I'm now a believer in fishing out fish I can't catch. I know dottybacks are small but there should beca hook small enough. Just flatten the barb, don't feed for a few days, and target the bait selection for it. I caught my clarkii clown in literally 2 seconds doing this.
