Re: transport
It will stress it no matter what you do. But will be less stress than being nipped by a puffer constantly. No easy way matey
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

Submerse the bag and chase the fish in to it with the net. Or use a measuring jug or similar to scoop it out
