Rent or buy a trap. This is the least destructive way I have found.

If you figure it out let me know. I have a damsel that i'd love to catch.

Put the food in side the net and once he goes in,You got him.

Same problem for me. Can't catch dottyback or damsels with net or home made plastic bottle trap. Check out this video from Melev's reef. Its funny and may give you some ideas.

The most common way for TRT peoples seems to be the SHOP VAC!!

i caught mine pretty easily...he was always very aggressive during feedings. I put in a cube of brine (still in cube form so it would float) and he would go up and hit it to break it up. I waited with a new and then got him when he went to attack the cube. Sneak attack! he was too keen to the trap if i just put food in the net.
