rondeco · 2006-08-04 15:29:21

I'm about to move some goldfish out of their tank to clean it. I've been given all the instructions on cleaing it i think but I dont know how to move the fish with out causing stress. Is a fishnet ok?

a net will be fine to remove the fish, just make sure you put them into something that they cannot jump out of while ur cleaning the bowl.:)

The nets are grand as said or you could just use a large glass to transfer them (one that's been rinsed with plain water no soap), put some of their old water into wherever you are holding them. Unless the water is really bad hold some of it back to put into the tank once it's clean.
