    No clue where he came from but explains random fish deaths now and all the others have been held up on the opposite end. Ive been hearing clicking for a while but i always thought it was my pistol shrimp.........well went to feed the tank and i see that son ova gun go after my cleaner shrimp. He's held up under my galaxia deep in a rock. I was just going to ask for help but I'm just gonna take the rock and fresh water dip it .

    Good luck! That method didn't work for me, also tried soda water. It came out enough for me to grab it

    HIya,

    Some folks in the group will take them on as pets if you can catch it. Some stores will even take them in trade.

    He's like and underwater cochroach. I think i moved his home now he is everywhere. Always eyeballing me from one of his many dungons of death. He is two inches and lighting fast. Trying the soda bottle trap with some krill. He's curious about it so far. Guess when i hear ww3 ill know i got him.

    Maybe, but I'm pretty sure what I did with the one I found in my tank was much more satisfying. ;)

    I did the fresh water dip and just left it until he was in the bottom of the bucket.
