Was having to pull out a few rocks to remove some caulerpa and reached into a hole with my forceps and he went after them. Dipped it into a little fresh water and out he came right into my net. Now he has a new home in my fuge, just hard to see it when it comes out through all the algea. He found a new home quickly in one of the rocks in there though so he's dong fine again. I'll try to get pictures when he comes out to eat some time.

Now I might be able to keep pepermint shrimp in the main tank again, I think they are the only things that it's gotten to as a snack.

If you have any snails in your fuge they will become lunch real soon. I put a small frag in with mine and it had 2 small snails on it, mantis found them and started pounding away.
