it looks like a very bad outbrake of ich is he still near the bottom like that
 
Sometimes a fish can have flukes and you wont even see them as they'll be in the gills.
 
it doesnt matter what the fish has in the gills if its in there you will know.....whether its ich or not the fish will demonstrate how uncomfortable it is
 
Ive been trying to catch a couple but kinda hard catching a 2" fast fish in a 250 gal tank lol
Any one know a fish whisper to tell them im trying to help them

its hard i know i tried in a 125 couldnt imagine that monster ............i would buy one big net ....i mean the ones you go fishing with ....tear down the rock work ......YIKES /////// and catch them alll and not throw one fish or even piece of rock from anywhere else in my tank .....the fact off ich bieng in my big tank that i just worked hard for .....and having to teardown my rock work
 
If you're not already, start feeding IN the traps. (ie only put food in the traps so the fish gets trained to eat out of the traps, then it gets a lot easier to catch them).

Are there any other fish in this system?

You can also wait till lights out and use a flashlight to locate and catch the fish.
It's difficult,but try no to stress it out to much.
 
i feel that if you are gonna trick them .....their most fav food and night time would get you some fish but others hmmmmm
