My Yellow Coris Wrasse has the parasite that gets in the gills (can't remember the name of it).  My chances of catching him with out dismantling the tank are slim to none. 
 
Does anyone have suggestions for treating this.  I have inverts so copper is not an option.  The only onther fish in the tank at this time is a Goby.
 
Thanks in advance.

We have a fish trap if you need to borrow it. We are in Salt Lake quite bit.

Gill flukes? Or Isopods?

After doing some online research my guess is gill flukes.

A hungry Cleaner Shrimp is what I would try first.

Thanks Mark.  I had actually thought of that and wondered if it would work.  I believe that is the route I will take for now.  Besides shrimp are fun to watch.
