My sump tank area encourter water vapour in the morning with the cabinate door close,can anyone advice how to prevent?Currently my main tank temp is 28-30 deg with 1 return pump running and lights on for 4hr per day.By installing 1 ac fan at the main tank to cool down the temp will solve the problem or the ventaration in my sump area is not good enough?

Hi, Would u mind sharing how u traped these crabs? Thks.

Just get a small glass bottle with the height at lease 4inchs and heavy enough to sink.Night time just place a small pc of market prawn into the bottle and place it between the LR and made sure no other fish or shrimp can get the food.Next day morning u shd see crabs trap inside the bottle.
