just to share with you pple. ;)

Item need: 1 x 1.5ml of plastic bottle

(1) cut 1/3 of the upper part of the bottle.

(2) cut 3/4 from the bottom part of the bottle. (i.e. center part of the bottle is not needed)

(3) force the upper part into the bottom part of the bottle.

(4) ensure the entry of the bottle is slightly offset from the center of the bottle; to allow the crab to crawl in easily.

FAQ:

Q:When should I use it?

Ans: Crab more active during the night.

Q: Can use smaller bottle?

Ans: Yes, you can.

(6) Take note: place this trap into your tank where it sit on the sandbed. place it in such a way that small fishes or shrimps will not get into the trap. (e.g. place against rock wall; blocking the large opening. (i.e. crab can make its way tru small holes from the rocks into the trap.

Cheers.

Cool idea, but how long did you leave your trap in he tank before you manage to catch the crab?

I spotted a crab within the rocks. Setup the trap and leave it thru one night.

Found it trapped the next morning.

Sorry to hear that. Holes at the trap area is good for water circulation.

In case thing like that happen again.. <_<
