Mostly patience.. I caught a lot of hermit crabs, peppermint shrimp and I had to chase my blenny away from the trap everytime i dropped it in.. I used the pop bottle trap with a string attached so i could pull it out quick. he would always circle it a bunch of time and try to go under it when I had it in the sand. finally I Propped it up on a 45 degree angle close to his favorite hole and he just popped right in... only bait I used was frozen Mysis and always set up in the evening with the lights on low, seemed to be when he was most active. I also didn't feed for the day, I only have lps coral and clean up crew right now with one moly miller blenny so no big deal to starve them.
good luck let me know if you get him
