Seriously, I suckered a few with a dead snail to move into another tank. When I caught them, 2 micro shrimp worked their way straight thru my net into my bucket.

I think they make pantyhose type nets, but I don't recall seeing any since I started back up a couple months ago...

I put a small piece of algae wafer in a brine net and they swarm into the net....then i remove it. works pretty well.
