Hey guys, i need help to catch dwarf angel. any idea how?

Buy another dwarf angel. Keep it in a beta box that has a center divider and open the gate on the other side as a mouse trap.

Fish it out with a small hook.

Or use a beta box as a trap and put some food into it...

Might end up catching some other fish 1st.. but gotta be patient...

A friend of mine is very good at fishing out the fishes that create havoc in his tank by using hook. A little cruel but it is a done deal. Or u can re landscape your live rocks.....

Good luck

The harm from the tiny hook will be minimal if you first remove the barb by filing down or press it down with a plier.

The thing is that without the barb, you will have to apply a constant tension on the fish once its hook.

what kind of things or food really attracts dwarf angels?

I am afraid that if i tried the betta box method, i would trap other fishes as my other fishes are more aggressive in feeding...
