fishboys Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 (edited) Bartletts Anthias , I have three in my tank and I want zero. If someone wants to come trap then I will sell them cheap. Since I am sure no one will come trap them for me. What I am looking for is the best mouse trap and the best way to use it. I have never caught a fish in a trap. Any and all help will be accepted. Thank you very much. Also if you have a trap laying around I can borrow for a long while or if someone has one they want to get rid of for cheap. Thanks again.

ChrisQ Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 (edited) My trap is a large Snapple bottle, just cut it at the neck, flip it around and rubber band it secure. Bait it with whatever is their favorite or a very small frozen shrimp " I use SF bay whole krill i think" Oh, and stab a bunch of holes in it so that water can travel through it for scent Edited July 24, 2015 by ChrisQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishboys Posted July 24, 2015 Author Share Posted July 24, 2015 So just grab it as soon as one goes in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisQ Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 (edited) So just grab it as soon as one goes in? Yes, if possible, but you don't really have to "fish sit" it, once they find the courage to actually go in, they can't seem to figure out how to swim through the same hole they came in even though it's completely unobstructed. If they are normally together and hunt together, hey you might just get all 3 at once. Monkey see monkey do Soak that bait in garlic as well Good luck bud!

fishboys Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 Jorge, If I ever catch them they will be much cheaper than I paid. They eat way to much and are very healthy, been in my tank 2 months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
