Catching Coral Banded Shrimp

[justjosh]

I have a RSM 130D and have two large coral banded shrimps in there. I have witnessed them attacking and killing any fish that sleeps in the rockwork. The only fish I have now are a clownfish and a pink smith damsel. They have killed a hi-fin goby, a firefish, and a coral beauty angelfish. I really want to add more fish to my tank (thinking about anthias and a bangaii cardinalfish) but am hesitant because I don't want them to be killed. So, I want to trade in the CBS's for maybe a pair of skunk cleaners. Ok, so what do you guys think is the best way to catch these guys? Thanks for any advice! :lol2:

Bait them with some raw shrimp on a skewer then scoop them up in a net. I've done this with peppermints before.

Ok, as soon as I get to the store, I will give this a try. Thanks!

Ok, caught the little buggars and traded them in for a nice mini-colony of peach monti digi!
