I got this guy when he was pretty small. Needless to say, he's not very small anymore! I'm already looking for fish trap ideas!
A few months ago I added 4 clown fish to the reef. Almost immediately after dropping them in, the snapper made a mad dash and sucked them up. I stood there thinking "hmm I should've seen that coming". Anyhow, he's a super cool fish, but his days on the reef are numbered...

Exactly! Fishhook will be the quickest method of removal.
