when i made my bottle trap (for my mantis) i used an elastic band around the whole thing and attached a piece of LR to it... just enough to make it sink. I also tied a piece of fishing line around the trap so i could remove it without submerging my entire arm.
I went to a place in richmond called "industrial plastics and paints". there are other places though. they have a location in poco as well.

bottle
The bottle took me longer to make than to catch the fish. It worked amazingly well. My sailfin tang even managed to wedge its way in there, the greedy monster! And he's big! Finally the bird wrassed got in there. He was much more wary. But a crustacean intrigued him enough.

Just a thought - ever thought of using a hook? I have caught several fish without any problems and minimal stress to the fish. However, I have never tried a hook a butterfly fish.
