Mantis! HELP !

[coinguy2]

Unsuccesful with the bottle trap : (

Unsuccesful with rinsing the rock : (

Looks like hammer and chisel to the rock -

I first found the rock he was in and rinsed under sink spigot nothing
came out (although I hoped he may have went down the drain)

Left the rock I saw him in out in the air for awhile - nothing came
out

Since this is a new tank, when I put the rock back in, I spread all of
it across the bottom unstacked, and put two bottle traps w/
silversides in them in as well . . .

After 3 days nothing, (he must have went down the drain!)

Removed bottle traps - arranged rock to my liking (again and again and
again)

Guess what I saw last night? Peeking his evil head out from the
largest rock on the very bottom of my aquascaping?

Set another trap an nothing this morning but some snails that had
found their way into the trap - - -

I can shine a flashlight into the hole he is in and see him back there
- snickering -

Time for hammer and chisel?

HELP !

Put the ROCK in a bucket. Turn on VERY HOT water. See if it will do the
following - either die in there or it will instinctively run
out.
Next option, if you are really annoy by this mantis and getting to your last
straw. Follow the King's method. Quarantee to work of removing it.

The King's method will help you in the following way:
1. Release all the ANGER that was builting inside you while you giving this
shrimp so many chances.
2. Satisfy your victory. Showing who the REAL BOSS.
3. Knowing it trully out and will not cause damage later when your tank is
establish.
4. Will not be seeing it evil smile and annoying shrimp version laugh.

The method as follow.
1. Find a stick that can be use to place into that hole.
2. Stir the stick rapidly and then VIOLENTLY.
3. Do not stop stirring until something flow out or debris.
4. Pour hot water to rinse out anything that is leftover.

Note.
Please use this king's method as the VERY last method.

Setup a 10g tank and put that rock in it. Enjoy watching him attack
prey, etc. safely away from your display tank.
