So I picked up a Dispar Anthias at Oceans Floor today. About 5 minutes after I let him free in my tank, and my tomato clown chased him until he jumped into the overflow. Any advice on how to get him out? I don't want to stress him out anymore than I have to. I am thinking of letting him sleep in there tonight and trying to convince him to jump out, into the tank of course. : )
Hopefully the tankmates will leave him alone tomorrow.

Get one of the kritter keepers and float him for a couple of days. The clown will get used to him, but won't be able to get him.

I had to get my Mystery wrasse out of an overflow Sat. afternoon.
Shut dowm my return, siphoned out all but 2"of water and was able to net him. I took out part of drain to make some room to see, but did that after the water was down. I wouldn't wait the night unless you've no where else to put it.
