Help me catch my Damselfish!!!!

[simpleminded]

He was the first in and hopefully the first out, that is if I can catch him. After introducing a couple of Gobbies the aggressive nature of said fish became apparent. He is stressing the other fish, and not to mention me. He is like a bad house mate from college. I have tried netting him during feeding but he is to quick for me.

Any special tricks out there?
As usual thanks in advance!

simpleminded - I feel your pain - once upon a time I too had a damsel that had to go. There's a great thread on RC on this - a diy fish trap - here's the essence of it - cut a plastic coke bottle in half... invert the top half with the spout and place it inside the bottom half... fasten the two haves together (punch a few holes and tie wrap the halves together works great)... submerge the trap into the tank (fill with tank water)... place food inside the spout, which is now facing inside towards the bottom of the bottom half)... place in bottom of tank... be patient... I actually caught a few keepers (clowns and such) before I got the damsel... good luck with this!

How big is the tank?

Which kind of damsel?

I have used this with great success, you may need to go with a larger bottle.
Good luck!
