Which fish do you DREAD netting out? Which ones do you not mind?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I HATE netting any of my fish. But catsfish and armoured catfish are the worst, imo....due to the entanglement in the net.
 
I tried to net out a couple Oscars from my neighbors pond..I had to drain it. That was the worst.
 
little convicts. fast as hell.
 
my monster blackbelt. tried moving it once and i looked like i was in a wet t-shirt contest in mexico during spring break
 
I haven't had to move it yet, but I'm dreading the fact that one day I'm going to have to move my Silver Aro to a bigger tank.
 
I dont mind netting angelfish or discus, they are pretty easy. I dread netting anything out of my salt tanks, specially the wrasse. Moving the big silver aro wasnt fun as he liked to jump, But the hardest thing I have to net imo was a 6" TSN in a 265gal that was full of rocks. I musta spent a hour trying to catch him.
 
My little female mama convict is the worst for me. She wasn't hard to catch... because she rammed the glass so hard she knocked herself out I think. She was upside down and not swimming afterwards anyways,after about an hour she was able to swim normally again though. Like I said, not hard to catch, I just worry she will hurt herself.
