Nah unfortunately not! But good answers. My advice - go fishing!

Maybe a stupid question but why do you hate these fish so much?

The second questionb is if you hate them so much - why did you put it in
the first place?

OK I have 2 yellow Damsels and a Pseudochromis
(the yellow one with the purple stripe going down the middle, nasty
fish)
I HATE these fish. I bought a fish trap, the canning jar one on
ebay...caught me some snails

I want to literally kill these fish, I've tried the feeding thing with
the net.
What else is there ?!?! Can they be blinded by a laser pointer ?
Do they make little harpoon guns? How about if I lace some food
with poison. I actually am about a week away from taking everything out
and then putting it all back in minus 3 fish.

Oh god that poor 6 line wrasse I just dropped in there today !

Any suggestions ?


Chris

You can't always know ahead of time what an a-hole that pretty fish is going to
be!

Please research fish before adding them to your aquarium.

Both very good questions. Ones I wish I had an answer for.
The yellow Damsels I can live with but the Pseudochromis I think has been
responsible for the death of a neon goby, cleaner shrimp and a cleaner
wrasse.
And now I see him working on the 6 line.

The Yellow damsels are digging out under the rock and knocking
over a few corals here and there. They are also kicking sand up all over
everything when
they're creating there little tunnels in the sand.

Lastly, I've just realized how nasty the Pseudochromis is.

Mike you don't work for fish protective services do you : )

So Rock, did you catch the damn thing(s)?! ha. The suspense is killing
me.

If not, I think a half bottle of Crown Royal ought to slow all the fishies
down enough where you can just reach in.

After half a bottle of that, Rock'll be lucky to be able to move. :-)
