"She swallowed the spider to catch the fly...I don't know why she swallowed the fly, I guess she'll die!"

Heheheheh, not about to start that vicious cycle. I have 3 skunk cleaners in there that might wind up being bait for a CBS or anything else that could eat the peppermints. I finally got clever and my superior (to a small crustacean anyway) intellect has triumphed. I put a piece of shrimp in a glass ale mug and laid it horizontally on the sandbed. It wasn't there 10 seconds before one of the peppermints was in there. Lifted the mug horizontal, then out of the tank, and presto! Caught peppermint. Two of the miscreants were caught this way and banished to the sump (footnote: will they eat pods? I might have to catch them *again* and trade them away). The third hasn't shown in over an hour despite a baited trap and the anemone there for its snacking pleasure. I might have injured it trying to catch it with the net, or it may be spooked. I hope it's OK - as frustrating as it is to learn about species compatibility this way, I don't wish them any harm for doing what comes naturally. I'll see if it shows up again. If it does, I know what to do.
