Finally got rid of Sixline!!

[Mantis147]

After weeks of thinking how to get my annoying Sixline Wrasse out of my tank I finally did it:D I had to remove the 20kgs of liverock from the tank to catch the little ******, and traded him into the LFS. So i was able to add my peppermint shrimp back into the tank & was able to buy new fish so got a Royal Gramma & a pistol shrimp to go with my Goby:). It took me 2 hours to re-construct the rockwork:mad: But its done now!!

Well done, a lot of work but I'm sure you're well pleased with the result, especially the Gramma. Seems that there are more nasty Sixlines than there are nice ones. Thank goodness I seem to have a nice one ;)

Thanks Gilly! I could not buy anything whilst it was in there incase it attacked it, as you said you must have got a peaceful one:)

Fair play mate. I've got a green chromis left over in my nano from my old system, I couldnt catch it in that till I drained it so I got no chance in this. I considered trying a hook and line but didnt want to catch any of the other 3 fish by mistake. Looks like Im lumbered with it, never mind suppose it aint so bad.

Rather than get rid of a troublesome six-line you should have added another one but with a size difference to the original one.
The two six-lines would have ignored the other fish and chased/displayed to each other.

Good point Wilfy!!:)

i bet it is a nightmare tryin to get a fish out of a reef tank i only have 25kg of live rock and that would be enough for me to take out and catch a fish
