I caught some last year, not so many as yours, in a net and put them in a bucket of water laced with clove oil. They just go to sleep so I don't feel so badly. I just don't have room for more than about 20 fish and those are fairly small by the standards here. Maybe 4-6" is all. And one big koi that is about 16" long. The others are gold fish and shebunkin.
