Default Help catching a Flame Angel

Surprise, surprise, my flame angel is eating my corals. He's gotta go. Any tips on catching fish without ripping the whole tank apart?

ummm maybe setup a trap, thats for fish, not the shrimp ones! or you can take shrimp (or whatever it eats) and put it on a fish stick that you might have, and then put it in the tank and just move it around, and when it comes too eat the food catch with the net! srry i dont know this is how some people catch there fish, i had an angel and it got ick, so I wouldn't know how to catch it lol

I tried everything suggested to me on here and finally broke down and tore the reef apart. They are not easy to catch that's for sure!

I'd like to build one of those !

It's all acrylic except for the trap door, which is glass ? Got some rough dimensions ? The tube in the center, you hold onto it with that and the trap door with your other hand ?

Sorry, never used one before....
