Would need more info.
Does it sound metallic? Is it rhythmic?
I have a 3 stripe damsel that "clicks" a lot when he is trying to rule the roost.

mantis shrimp

 

[frenchie]

pistol shrimp

 

[drgabe]

Time bomb?

 

[frenchie]

or a shrimp with a pistol:eek2:

 

[Schplitter]

I have no damsel in the tank. It sounds like something is chipping the glass. It's loud!!!

Is it dangerous or should I leave it alone?

 

[VSpeck]

ohh ohh pick me...
i saw this under sea gang wars on tv once.
put a fish with a pistol in there and it should off the shrimp. the fish might need some back up though, shrimp are bad dudes.

 

[Schplitter]

Ok so how do I get this thing out of my tank?

 

[teetimefun]

I have pest trap if you want it.

 

[frenchie]

[breutus]

[Scarecrow]

Our pistol shrimp did it all the time, kinda creepy.

 

[latazyo]

[Schplitter]

[Schplitter]

No can do. I'll be home around 9pm and have to be up at 7am ... Saturday I have to work until 7PM and have to DJ that night so no go on that eighter...

If I get this thing out of the tank then I'll let you know or bring it by...

[breutus]

well you have to start by finding him and his "home" and then you use the chase into trap trick and it typically works really well

 

[JxMetal]

BK, when do you want to buy some sps colonies for that new tank?

 

[Schplitter]

NOW!!! I need to come your way soon...
