two ways to do this safely. if the whole pond is going to be drained

drain it all
the way down until the fish are nearly flopping on the bottom. they arent

stressed
until the last minute when they are netted. then into clean water with

aeration.
second method is a sewage pump on the bottom in a milk crate and slowly

move it
around sucking out the crap without stirring things up. if things get

stirred up,
then add stock solution of PP to twice the normal dosage to inactivate

toxic gases.
yes, 10 days of antibiotic food, only when the temp is over 55oF. OR, try

Jan's
approach. Ingrid

Taking all the fish out will be very hard. Won't they be hard to catch??

On the antibiotic food for 10 days also? Just making sure.
