help mi wif my damsel

[iewnehz]

hey guys!

how do i get out my damels wif my live rocks and corals in my 3 ft tank? The damsels are inside to cycle my tank and they were to fierce to mix with fire gobys.

i tried but when my net is inside, they all hide until nowhere to be seen..

Is there anyways to get them out without touching my rocks and corals?

Thanks!

Use those clear plastic mini pet tanks. Submerge the whole tank in water and pray for the fish to swim in by its own.

hmm... i suggest you get a bigger net.... den dun feed for one day and after that when you feed the fishes, standby for action! The damsels sure come up to eat wat, dat's when you grab....

This topic has been covered pretty extensively before and IMO, the best solution is still to borrow a lionfish from a fellow reefer and after awhile you won't see the tank-cycling damsels ever...

PS I know it's a cruel solution but then again I believe that using damsels to cycle tanks is not very nice in the first place..

Well, pardon my brute honesty..

Is ur fish greedy n it is handfed? If yes, it's easy liao. Wat l did to remove my Domino is, put the clear mini plastic tank in. Lure him to the tank n throw the food in. When it goes in, u close the tank door.
