Well after the lights went out and me with the flashlight I found I have some roaming the tank that is . Is there any quick and easy way (other than taking down the rockwork ) or some type of trap (DIY or other and "bait" that works really well. I have a small trap but I seen a couple mosters that I not sure will fit there cubby shell into.

Put an empty jar with some bait in it on an angle up against some LR. The crab(s) will crawl in for the food or out of curiosity and can't crawl back up the glass to get out. I've tried this method a couple times and it worked pretty good.
