I'm giving two of my young bnp's to someone today. What's the best way of catching them and transporting them? I have some fish bags from previous purchases or a tub?

I net the young ones then when i put them in the bucket (or wherever they are going) i wait till they let go of the net before removing it.
I transport mine in a bucket with a piece of wood and a fake plant for cover.
 
Thanks! I was already in transit by the time you posted. I netted and popped in a fish bag. They were fine (I hope!) and will enjoy their new home (I double hope!!)
