Netting Damsels
 
I have 2 pesky Damsels that i'm trying to catch. I have lots of liverock so its proving difficult. Any tips?

Try the bottle trap with some food. Your going to need some patience with those guys. I have had to remove almost everything in the tank to catch one.

Being a damsel, try net feeding.
Put food into a net, and wait patiently.
After a day or three all your fish will go into the next to get food.
Wait for the damsel and snatch it out fast.

Smazter, I feed them mysis they just seem to disintegrate. Amy ideas?

Sure.
Let them stay, learn to love them.
