I've seen numerous posts on giving an aggressive fish a timeout in QT or acclimation box or wherever.
Unfortunately I have my first fish tank aggression and a long nose hawk is being a real bully. I want him out for a bit.
He's impossible to catch.
I'm thinking of using a trap, but if I do and then I introduce him back, will he have already learned to never go in the trap again?
Are timeouts effective at changing the behavior of some fish or it is just buying time and still need to change the fish mix to have any positive impact?
