Hi all!

So ich hit the tank despite the quarantine. I have managed to take all the fish out with several methods, its being a month and a half since I started. But one firefish is resisting all my tricks. I have tried all the tricks in the book, traps, lights, etc. No matter what it won't work.

So I'm desperate now. And I need a way to take it away. So far my last resource it's to drug it so it can be taken out.

Is there a way to do that? It's there method to numb the fish?

Thanks in advance for the help.

LEAVE THE TOP OPEN. THEY ARE NOTORIOUS JUMPERS AND ARE BOUND TO TAKE THE LEAP !!

drain the water down to 1 inch and remove what rocks you have to to catch it

This. Give it nowhere to go.

I would like to go the chemical way. Does anyone knows a anesthetic that I could use in the tank? Hahaha

+1 on just pull the rock he hides in

Anyway to isolate the fish in a small section Maybe with egg crate? if draining you will need to isolate the fish 1st or you will have to pull all the rock until the fish is found. PITA job, Good Luck !
