I actually tried (unsuccessfully) a kids fishing pole with a hook. You would be better off with a simple line/hook, though it didn't work for me. If you need a hook, I might have one that could work, but it was too big for my nasty fish.

The ORA green birdsnest that Chris got his frag off of died for me, but since I gave him the original frag, I think I should have the first priority when he frags it. LOL. Oh wait, I already had my chance, but blew it when I had my tank incident a year ago. From what I noticed, it grew quickly, but was more touchy than most of my other SPS corals.

Sorry to intrude in the club forum - My husband used the little hook off a jig to catch a wrasse and a clown for me - he just tied the line to it and snagged them when they went for the krill

Grn Birds nest: I have a few small frags (about 1/4- 1/2") that broke off during the move and I have mounted them to frag plugs about three weeks ago if someone would like to trade (looking for small SPS frags). I also have a few ricordea mushrooms (green w/ purple), bright green mushrooms, and striped mushrooms (green w/ purple) avail for trade (looking for more ricordea mushrooms just different colors).
Let me know!

If you have the bright green ORA birdsnest Chris, bring one over for me. If it is hte same one that I currently have that has green polyps under plenty of actinic lighting, I wouldn't be interested.
All I have to to if I want to catch my tomato clown is put my hand in the water and wait until it attacks. It attacks everything, including a fish net.
My pokemon held in for about a month before it died and as of a few days ago my superman was alive and looking good, except for its brown appearance since it never fully colored up. Unfortunately, it disappeared a couple days ago and I haven't found it yet. I think a fish or something must have knocked the rock that it was growing on down into a crevasse somewhere. Hopefully I'll find it alive sometime.

Any news on whether or not the fish is still alive? Glad you were able to at least get it out of your tank though (without having to tear everything apart).
