[120reefermadnes]

Cant fit a net down there, can I remove the overflow pipe and return pipe so I can fit a net in there to try n get him out?

Any other ideas?

I've undone the pipe a few times. Just make sure that it doesn't get stuck in your pipe.

Take the pipe out or use your hand is about the only option available. Less water with the hand method would make it much easier

Depending on size of the fish, I read on here once that someone used like 1" or 1 1/4" hose from hardware store and siphoned a fish out! Just a thought.
