Just an update, I looked into the bottle trap, and I was going to try it until I spoke to Brad from Island pets, and he told me to try a different trick which ended up working!

It took a while, but he said to just leave a net inside the aquarium, and throw some food/nori in there. Since the fox loved nori, it took him a couple days to warm up to the net, but eventually started not being scared of it and, although cautiously, went inside to grab the daily piece of nori that I stuck in there.

I finally, after 3-4 days, grabbed the net, threw nori in there, waited, and sure enough the fox swam directly inside and I scooped him up. First time I've ever handled a fish that size (about 5 inches, and FAT) I thought the net would rip lol.

But I finally caught him.

Unfortunate, but it had to be done.
