Well for the first time in over 10 years I have had my first outbreak of ich and its so far horrible. I have qt'ed and my last addition to the tank still brought something in.

I have lost 8 fish so far and what remains are my older fish I have had for over 5 years. I was hoping I could find someone here with a fish trap to help me catch my fish. I only have one qt tank so my other hope is someone close could hold a few of my fish until they are healed.

If anyone around flower mound could help please message me.
 
I used an inverted Coke Bottle (Clear Type) to catch fish. Looks like below.

Thanks for the tip. This may work for my smaller fish but not the larger.

I am also trying to determine if this is ich or velvet. It maybe velvet after looking this morning. If that is the case the fish affected maybe to far gone.
 
I have a large fish trap you can rig over your tank. Alternately you can siphon out most of the water into trashcans and scoop out the fish since they have less room to swim away.
 
I have a trap, but it is currently on loan to another fellow member in Flower Mound. I'll try to get ahold of them and see if they're finished using it.
