I have used the Fish Corral that I bought at Dr's Foster and Smith. It is a clear plastic trap that you put food in and close the door when the fish goes in. It often takes patience but I have always eventually caught the fish. The part I like is that it is water tight when tipped on it's side. I use it to acclimate the new fish coming out of or going into quarantine and then put the whole vessel in the tank and safely let everyone see the new fish. After a while you open the door and let him swin out. The fish never touches a net or comes out of the water or anything and seems as non traumatic as can be.

I am not crafty to make my own traps so this is an awesome tool for me.
