  1. After you've done up your DIY fish trap, make space on your sand bed to place it there.. before you do that, throw a frozen cube of your fish favourites.. eg. henry's food, mysis, cyclopeeze.. first ones to go in would most likely be your shrimps or snails.. depending on how greedy your fish is, they should be in soon. now all you need to do is sit back, relax and wait for your fish to enter.. once the your targeted fish enters the trap, reach down, turn the trap vertically up.. they'll go "crazy" in the trap, do not worry as chances of them swimming out through that same hole is not very high.. things to note: ensure that the mouth of the trap is not too big, just nice for the fish to enter
  2. recently i tried DIY-ing a fishtrap, with the guidance of some videos from YouTube, i managed to do up a decent fish trap.. proved to be very effective as i got my first fish in within 5mins (although not the one i wanted) i guess this would solve most of our headache of trying to remove fishes without disturbing our rock scape and corals. here are some simple steps to do up the DIY fish trap. Items needed: Get an empty plastic bottle (1.5L or 600ml), a pen knife, and some black tape (optional) Step 1: Cut the top of the bottle as shown in the picture below.. the current mouth of the bottle would be good enough for small fishes like gobies or wrasse.. to catch larger fishes, you can cut the mouth further as shown below.. after cutting you'll get these 2 parts Step 2: invert the top part of the bottle and place it on top. Push it down to ensure that its level with the bottle. Step 3 (optional): Black tape the fish trap and we're DONE
  3. Fish Sold to chercm.. thanks for the making the effort to come down to collect the fish... hope that it'll go into a good home.. if it wasnt for the fact that it was nipping my corals, i would never have sold it thank you all for the interest in the fish.. thread close!

  6. hey guys... introducing kiko's very own DIY Fish Trap! decided not to be too lazy, so i DIY-ed my own fish trap using a 1.5L bottle... threw in one "self-cut cube" of henry's food into the bottle... placed it on the sand bed.. after about 5mins, my super greedy cleaner wrasse went in and got trapped.. together with 2-3 snails.. after about 15mins, my yellow tang went into the bottle, having a buffet... had to remove the 2 fishes by "leading" them out... after about 40mins of waiting... finally, the flame angel which had be hovering around the mouth of the bottle, finally went in... before i could reach in to turn the bottle up, he realised that he went into a trap and he started swiming like one mad fish... went in scoop up the bottle, remove the cap, and transfered the flame angel into my betta box.. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED thats fast... so happy
