Try a bottle trap for your shrimp. I managed to catch a couple cleaners and a fire shrimp in mine with some food as bait.

I have a couple salifert spoons kicking around if you are in my area and want to stop by to grab one.

Thx Sean will do, are you around tomorrow? It would have to be a fairly small bottle & I don't want to break any corals trying to catch them. From what I've read it's very seldom people are losing shrimp. I just talked to my vets office & he's away for a week... the secretary talked to me like she thought I was retarded when I asked her if she had heard of it, & that's a whole nother issue, I just need to get some interceptor. So this raises another question:
Can anyone recommend a vet in CT who is aware of what we are using interceptor for?

Oh ya, forgot how packed your tank is with all those nice SPS. Would be tough to get a bottle trap in there.

Only around from about 5:30 to 7 tomorrow night if that works for you. Otherwise maybe Saturday if tomorrow does't work for you?

Everyone should just treat their tanks for these little bastards. It's easy & will help stop the spread. I think Most people have them & just don't know. Did it last night, only lost 2 hermits. My cleaner attacked & ate one while I watched. There are no signs of redbugs today.

Good to hear and I agree with you. I think they can go un-noticed for a long time and I suspect a ton of people have them.
