Turn the return pump off so that the water rises in the back chamber, he may swim out or at least hop into a larger chamber where you can net him.

Maybe entice him with a tiny piece of food.

Probably your best bet. I never had to do any of that but Im also a smaller female so Ive got smaller hands. Usually I just flick my fingers at it at the bottom and when it swims up scoop him!

Any filter floss you can cut into a narrow strip and maybe let it climb up?
 

DO YOU USE A PAR METER WHEN PLACING NEW CORAL IN YOUR TANK?

  • Yes! I think it's important for the longterm health/growth of my coral.

    Votes: 5 7.1%
  • Yes, but I don't find that it is necessary all the time.

    Votes: 16 22.9%
  • Not currently, but I would like to.

  • No. I don't measure PAR and my corals are still healthy/growing.

    Votes: 14 20.0%
  • Other (please explain).
