Catching Fast Fish

[Seasalt]

I have the hardest time catching one my zebra danios, how do you all catch small fast fish?

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.

2 nets one large one small,use the small one to direct the fish into the large net-Anne

yea the 2 net trick always works best for me also.

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**.
