Hi I have 2 damino damsels making a mess . I had then from babies now there huge nipping fins of all the fish queen angel lionfish fox face... There in a 200 tank acrylic.. My question is how can I catch them. There to fast and the tank only has small openings.. Alls I do is upset everyone.. Any suggestions please thanks jimmy
 
one way to do it is to sent up a wall of plastic chicken wire in the middle of the tank, get all the fish on one end and the 2 damsels on the other, then cut a hole in the cicken wire, attach a beg with twist ties, and loure them into the bag.

Here is a link to a person's aquarium where she did the same thing, it is picture 21. http://www.sjwilson.net/reef/

Here is a great trick I have used many many times.
From now on, when you feed your fish, put the food inside your fish net. By using the net to feed, your fish will begin to associate the net with food, and will approach the net when you put it in the tank. Give it a few days, and your Damsels will almost jump into the net for you.
