I've caught my mantis, now what?

OK. I've caught my mantis and have him in a 2.5. What do I need to do now. I have some live rock and fragged corals in there. What is the best way to remove some of the rock and make sure that I don't inadvertantly move him back to my main tank?

Congrats! You should probably let it settle down and when the mantis shows itself, take out a piece of rock he is not in Unless of course, the rock in the 2.5g has more then one mantis

It that does not work for you, the club soda or high specific gravity dips would do the trick. Just take some time to research the methods so you don't snuff out your prize ;>)
