I have been searching around the forum for "net dip" to disinfect/soak my nets/catch cups between use.
Bleach is an obvious possibility for when you are not using the items.

But what if I want to transfer fish from two tanks and want to prevent spreading pathogens. The LFS uses some blue water in the shop. Not sure what is is...

I actually have two nets per tank. One standard sized net that's good for smaller fish, scooping out sand, etc and then one larger one for netting discus if needed. I always use a bleach dip in between uses.
