Does anyone know how to catch a Camelback shrimp?

I have a destructive Camelback and need to catch him quickly. How can I best accomplish this?

Try putting a small new frag in the front of your tank where you can net it easily, shrimp are inquisitive just sit and wait when he goes to investigate net him

Take a clean empty pop bottle and put some sinking pellets in it, soak them in garlic and selcon to make them smell yummy and put it in at night, come back about 15 minutes later and he'll probably be in there, plus a bunch of pods and bristleworms.

I had one when I first started. I watched him several days and got him during a molt....... The bottle trick works well though.

Do what the other guy said about the plastic 1 litter bottle except cut the top 3 inches off the bottle and flip it around and stuff the top back in the bottle. When the shrimp goes into the bottle to get the pellets it will get trapped. Ive pulled out three peppermints today. If you just put in a regular bottle the shrimp will shoot out of it too fast.
