Help me catch them and they're yours!

I have two wiley Bolivian rams (both males, I think). Good sized and pretty. But they are NOT cooperating with the relocation plan. If you want them free, you have to come and help me catch them out of a 58-gallon planted tank. (Some destruction of plants acceptable.)

I'm in Gaithersburg . . .

How about instead I come help you catch those Blue Orchids?

Sounds like a job for Matt Quinn.. he's over in Montgomery Village.

If you can't find anyone to take them Holly, I'll drop by and help you catch them.

I will consider only if it's going to be easier than trying to catch that Red Empress from your tank a couple of years ago.

I would be happy to help you out just send me a pm when you are avialable.

PS. I usually catch dificult fish at night after they have been asleep for awhile. First I spot them with a flashlight then I come back 10-15 min later and turn on the lights and snag(net) them while they are blinded and groggy.

I just pictured you walking around being all sneaky trying to sneak attack your fish and it made me lol haha

You guys are the best! Problem with the "in the dark" option is that I can't even find them with the light on! They are managing to hide very successfully and by myself I can't flush them out AND catch them. (Not that my technique is very good to being with. Altho I did get three of the five by myself!)

PMs sent.

Yes, hope it's easier than the Red Empress. That was a comedy!

Drain the water out into another tank or barrell. Easy pickins'.
