Can someone give me a way to catch a shrimp without destroying my tank. My camelback is eating my yellow star polyps and I need to get him in my fuge. I have tried the 2 liter bottle with a piece of shrimp method for 3 days and that did not work. I even tried with a piece of shrimp in my fedding tongs, trying to get him to come into the net, but no luck. Your help is greatly needed!!!!!!!!!! :help: :help: :help:

I have always had luck with putting a container behind the shrimp and then scaring the shrimp from the front. Its knee-jerk reaction is to jet backwards . . . right into the container. Of course this only works if you can get the shrimp and container in the right spot.

I've caught a lot of peppermints by putting food in a net. I don't know if camel backs would be that easy.
