How to catch fish from the tank?


Recommended Posts

  • SRC Member

I tried the DIY fish trap, but the fish is not buying it... eventually I have to pump all the water out from the tank to catch them.

Anyone has any effective and less troublesome way of trapping a fish out of the tank?

Thank you!

Which fish trap u using? I used one with the trap door one and it worked pretty good. Just need to hold the sliding door up with a piece of string and use a little container with live brine shrimp thats place all the way inside the trap. Sit from a distance and... Wait... Usually takes about 5 mins if u use live brine shrimp

Yes, we know, there's a cheaper and prettier fish than the one were talking about. - John Coppolino

use betta box, easier if ur fish is feeding on food like seaweed which can be placed in the box. They will swim in and u just have to close the gate.
