Catching a coral banded shrimp?????

[cole_schoolman]

Any advice on catching a coral banded shrimp. Hes got a cave in my rock work and almost never comes out. Have an Aipstasia problem and need to add some peppermints, but the coral banded keeps killing them all. Need him out asap.

You will probably have to pull the rocks out to get to him but Id personally look into some other methods of killing off the aiptasia, aiptasiax - x or some other method of injecting them. There is also a few vids on youtube with other methods of killing them safely.

I got some aptasia on a rock with a coral that I bought. I used the boiling water method. Pulled the rock out and used a turkey baster, directed the stream at the aptasia, then sucked it up. I was surprised at how easy it was.

Lol when I had aptasia I freaked out because I was new to the hobby so I threw all my rock in the freezer for two weeks.

I used white vinegar and injected it right into the discus. I did 2 each day so the vinegar wont mess with parameters

I didn't want to put rock in my oven so I thought of freezing it haha. It worked great though never came back.
