I'm having the same problem with giant danios that are really fast! When my tank is completely cycled and I do my last water change, I'm going to drop the level down low enough to get them out of there.

I drop the water level in the tank to a few inches, this eliminating the fish' ability to swim over or under the net. They're much easier to catch when you only have to chase them around 2 dimensions.

The last time I had to remove a school of tetras, I had to tear down the whole tank. It was a pain in the a**.
