Hmm, what a good way to get rid of them? What fish should I be looking at getting? Wrasse of some sort? A sixlined wrasse might be to aggressive I think. Suggestions?

All I can suggest is Google
Im not looking to wipe out my hermit crabs so thanks for sharing, just making sure i make the right choice. Ive heard CBS hunt these little guys down but no real proof of it. Mandarin's were suggested also.

I'd think amphipods are much too big for mandarins to eat
Copepods and isopods yes, but not amphis

Research a Yellow Coris halichoeres chrysus, but not a yellow and purple halichoeres leucoxanthus
