Kanaplex Reef Safe? Tips on Catching a Fish?

dismayed · 02/15/2009, 10:51 PM

Two questions.

1. Is Kanaplex reef safe? I'd like to treat a fish but I don't know that I am going to be able to catch him and put him in the hospital tank. He's very fast.

2. Any tips/tricks on catching an elusive fish for transport to the hospital tank? I have lots of rockwork....

Thanks.

fish traps come in many sizes and are effecient. www.premiumaquatics.com www.marinedepot.com are a few site that carry them.
just bait it and let him trap himself and move him to the hospital.
ive never used Kanaplex, so i can not give an opinon on that product.
