    yellowtail damsel and he's still in there. I've been putting in some dried algae, and he doesn't eat it but attacks it. I almost had him a few times.

    Karma for your loss Reef Lover. Evac that godamsel asap and donate it to the lfs or introduce it to the trash can. I hate those fish....:uzi:

    Thanks. When I had my anemone, I tried hitting my damsel in it. But he grew to big and I traded it in.

    you may have to spend some cash on a fish trap. I had 5 little beggars that I couldn't catch.....I eventually bought a trap online at Premium Aquatics and within an hour had all 5. slick as pie.....;)

    Hippo tangs are pretty hard to keep and really sensitive to water quality too, what kind of filtration do you have? Have you done any water tests?
