I can not get a damn fish for the life of me. I am trying to catch one of my Green Chromis, but all im doing is stressing everything out, and knocking everything over. Is there a trick to this or what. Should i get a pond net? HAHA

If you MUST use a net, you should leave it hanging slghtly above maybe dipping into the water, maybe a day or two, then after the fish are used to it being there, feed right by the net, eventually they will swim very close to it and not dart away from it. You should be able to scoop him this way. If this doesn't work you'll have to get a fish trap.

LFS may let you borrow one if you plan on trading the fish in. They will definately sell you one or you could google fish trap for cheap prices.
