Well, I finally spotted the critter that had been killing all my inverts since the move. Crushed nassarius shells all around his home. He's also taken out 2 cleaner shrimp, 2 pepermint shrimp and beats up my fish on a regular basis.
He revealed himself yesterday.. I tried the pop bottle trap and I think he just laughed at me. I did manage to catch my cylon dottyback 3 times! lol. So if I actually ever DO want to catch him, I know how. Tonight I just pulled out the mantis home, squirted some fresh water in and he jumped right out in to a bucket. Snapped some good pics before I put him in the side baffle of my sump with some LR rubble.
Here's a couple pics:
While I was at it, I went after a rock I knew had a hitchicker crab in it. I scared him out with the same technique. Let's just say they didn't get along, but no one was seriously injured.. heheh
He's kinda cute actually! I have had this hitchicker crab since the first time I ever bought live rock almost 2 years ago.. I can't beleive he's still alive and kicking! And getting kicked.. Err clubbed..
