First you take a bad photograph of the fish in its current tank, you need to keep all water stains on the glass else it won't look like a move
then you get a big enough cooler and line it with a large garbage bag, just so that the fish doesn't injure himself by scraping against the inside of the cooler
then you need to catch the big guy in a large enough net, a large pond net(gift from shankar) helped me
then you release the fish into the cooler and take a lot of pics and vids , before you begin your move
i don't have the video, as it was shot on the wife's phone, will share the link once i upload it on youtube

Nice pics Jibran
I'm always amazed at you ability to find and justify the beauty of many Monster Fish but keeping them in optimum conditions
There are very few people who can do what you do. Without you, all these fish would extinct in our hobby and be replaced with small natives. And most of us would never get to know them.
Thanks a lot
