Default Using electricity to catch fish out of a decorated tank...

I used to keep snakeheads, clown knifes, oscars and garpikes, among other
baddies in a tank together,... nettingthem was no problem... Just gottahave
a big enough net

HUH! Ever try to net out a Pacu? Though my two Pacus are quite healthy I
need to get them out of the tank, they are simply too large, they don't

look
right, and they make the rest of the fish population very nervous with

their
attempts at out dominating each other, by tagging each other sideways. If

I
ever catch these two 'freaks', I'll bring them to Petland Discount, let

them
find a good home for them.

I can't imagine it doing much good to a fish thats already sick... Odds

are
you will probably end up frying them all. Do it the old fashioned way

and
net them out...

When biologists try to chart the fishpopulation in open water, they

often
use electricity to stun the fish.
Maybe this is a silly question, did anyone ever use/try electricity to

catch
their (sick) fish out of a fully decorated tank?
Would this be a good idea? What current/voltage should be used?
