I wait till all the lights are out in the tank and the room is dark then have a look around with my trusty flash light with the red lens. I have pull many crabs from my tank with this method.

Come to think of it it is about time I go on a crab hunting expedition again


Hope this helps and happy hunting
I think I may end up going this route. Last night only one small hermit was in the glass. The bugger may not even be in the main tank anymore - I moved some LR around between the sump and hte main tank... I want to make sure he's out of the main tank, tho before I go and get some shrimp, tho
