Check out LFS, Marine Depot or the like. I don't think it's anything to freak out about..... I've never had any personal experience with them in my tank, but I had a guy give me a trap.... They seem simple enough. Other than that, I really don't know about the details. I'm sure a search would pull up the info your looking for.
Good luck,
Geoff

drfostersmith.com has a trap that would work, 2 of them actually. The trap with some luck and patience you'll get him.

try the bottle trap before spending good money
Cut a 20oz water bottle a little below where it starts to taper to the top.
Invert the top (neck) so it's inside the bottom half - Silicone or superglue it together
Insert bait (raw shrimp or krill)
Sink in the tank - Place it near where you think the burrow might be. Telltale signs will be little piles of LR rubble or CUC remains near a hole or cavity in the LR.
You might turn out the lights and wait.
If you catch it, don't kill it - PM me or post on the board - Someone will undoubtably take it off your hands
