Catching any fish in a stocked tank is a nightmare.

I say 3 friends... 4 nets and a case of beer.
good thing I thought about this when aquascaping....

he hides in one side of the 2 mounds in my tank, the top is one huge rock which as soon as you lift it off exposes the cave where he hides.

3 friends with 4 nets and beer will just break everything in my tank, you cant fit a fish box in the tank little own 1 large net without getting stuck everywhere is acro sticking out!

I dont want this to be a camping excursion.... as soon as he sees nets hes in the cave. Thanks for the suggestion but I will stick to the original plan of draining the tank!
