Clownfish in overflow

[ENB]

So my clownfish outsmarted me, and went into my overflow somehow, there is a screen on top and it's too narrow for most nets.
How do I get it out?
It seems to be enjoying itself there but the other maroon clown I got took up a safe residence and I would like the pair together.
Any ideas?

Can you get a small container down to the bottom of the overflow? If you can, you can drain/siphon the overflow as much as possible to lessen the room the clownfish has to maneuver and scoop it out.

It's not really a large overflow I don't know how large of a container I'll be able to get in there. Maybe half of a 20 oz bottle.
Is there a way to siphon the clown out with a large hose maybe? Or would that hurt it?

Just siphon as much of the water out of the over flow as you can, then use a small net, like a brine shrimp net, and scoop it out. You may need to use two, so you can position the fish so you can net it. I do it all the time without any problems.

Is it small enough to go down the drain? If so, just pull the durso out while keeping a net at the drain in the sump. It should whoosh down the drain.

your arm should fit in there... it happened to me. I Bent the net, its thing metal it bends, stick it down under scare him to the top and grab him with your hand...

I have a Petco stick that can have many heads I can stick down and try to scare him up,
Will post of it works

take a small net, bend the wide square head into a narrow thin net, or fold it at 90 degrees into a triangular end, which could scoop a fish up if it was in the corner of your tank. Basically work the net frame into something that would fit into the space.

After 1/2 an hour of standing bent over the tank with the Petco stick and a small net and a shoulder length glove switching back and forth while holding my phone to give me some light, I finally got the clown to swim to the top and my wife held the phone to give me the light and I swiped the clown out of the overflow with the net.
Now I am covered in saltwater and sore but the clown is back in the tank.
Any ideas how to keep my Solomon island perc from attacking my maroons?
