I just upgraded from a 55 gallon tank to a 125 gallon tank. I never had trouble catching my fish in the 55 despite all of my live rock, but now I am having trouble. Does anyone have any slick ideas for me on how to catch my fish in this tank? I have all my live rock on the sides of my tank where it is drilled so my cortex ray has a large sand bed.. Thanks, Lindsey!
 
when I moved houses, I removed all the live rock and took most of the water out of my 265g and left about 3"-4" of water and then scooped them out with the net
 
I have already switched tanks from the 55g to the 120g. I just need advice on how to catch them in there with it full.
 
ohhhh sorry, I would say use 2 nets. one for them to move in the direction you want and the other to catch the fish and a lot of patience lol
 
I used a piece of acrylic and sectioned of the section with no rocks after getting the fish on that side. No problem after that.
 
Egg crate works to section off the tank too. I just had to catch two Chromis in a 240g. Waited until both were on one side... Dropped the egg crate down in the center and moved it towards them. Used two nets and had them both in about ten minutes.
