Hopefully by the end of the week this bastard will learn something from my yellow tang and go inside the trap :mad:

I had a huge Pink spotted Goby/night watchman.  He would dust up my tank and kill my 6 lines.  Royal pain in the ass. Never again.  I used the same trick as you are trying.

Good luck Teebone!

I think Yellow tangs are the dumbest fish.  Mine swam into my trap after 45 sec.  I wish I could get the Chromis to do the same.. Bastards aare so fast/

A pair of banner fish. They decimated my zoos in about 15 mins. Luckily they were stupid and within an hour I caught both in a trap.  Sold them an hour after that. Lol

I wouldn't say I regret it... but my black clown female is always picking on my little orange clown (male).  Always shoving him out of the way - NEVER lets him eat, always smashing into to him and pushing him into the corner when it's feeding time.  The little orange guy is now afraid of him and is in the corner of the tank 90% of the time... even when it's feeding time the little guy is very cautious to go for pellets.

I got some damsels and a Clarks Clown when I started my tank, pretty much expected them to die through the cycle, the bastards are still alive and the Clarks Clown is huge. I want to get a small school of Cardinals, but want to get rid of the others first. No, I am not a fish killer, maybe I will try the LFS for credit.

Gold strip maroon clownfish! The most annoying fish in the world! Might as well let it put the corals in the tank, it just moves them anyways!
