Use a fishing hook with no barbs . Bait it with a piece of seafood .
Works amazing with a hole damsels , squirrel fish , triggers ,Now that just sounds like fun
This trap only worked on a couple of the fish i was not trying to catch. The tangs and wrasse are too fast and can get out once the door starts coming down.I caught many a fish in my DT with this... works like a charm. Set it up, grab a drink, add food to trap, and wait...
Fish Trap
Get that troublemaker out of your aquarium! IceCap Fish Traps are by far the easiest solution to catching fish or even invertebrates out of your aquarium while minimizing stress and potential physical damage. Just place the trap against your tanks glass or acrylic pane and dispense some food...www.bulkreefsupply.com
Blennies catch on quick if they shake the hook once…Now that just sounds like fun
Patience... I caught 4 tangs with it. Yellow, sailfin, purple, and hippo. The purple was the worst... he saw all the others and was reluctant to go in. He finally succumbed after 24 hrs without feeding and he couldn't resist.This trap only worked on a couple of the fish i was not trying to catch.

ahh the weighted door!!! I did not think of that. Would definitely have worked better.Patience... I caught 4 tangs with it. Yellow, sailfin, purple, and hippo.

The wrasse, I totally agree, a real pain. The worst was the blennie and the easiest was the hawkfish.
It does work, just takes patience and persistence. I had to go fallow a yr ago and I was able to catch all the fish with it over 2 days.

I’ve had tremendous luck netting them at night. The trick is to shine a very bright light onto their face in the middle of the night and then net them up.

I was thinking of getting a tank to place the rock. Take the rock out then catch. But this trap looks so appealing. Man. Ich is tough. I feel
So bad for my fish and my fiancé. She has cried a lot and we just lost another. Anyone know about this rally product. We are using kick ich. But nothing yet. I’ve read only negative reviews for a DT with inverts and coral. I’m going to buy a trap I think.
Been there and I feel your pain. My wife was the same as your fiance. She was beside herself... Lost a lot of fish when I went through it... It's a hard lesson learned and one I won't repeat.Thank you everyone. I’m on my way this week to get another tank I have no wear to put all my rock it’s covered in coral.
