No, the crab is what went down the drain. lol He was in a zoa rock that has like 6 different kinds on it, and he was eatting them, plus other corals at different times. My wife held the net and i pulled the rock up really fast and went to stick it in the net, and he still got out and landed on a rock by the sand. The rock he was in had an opening on two different spots and i didnt want him to get away, so i stuck the pliers in there to pull him out. He put he's claws out instead and i got those instead. After i pulled them off he came darting onto the sand where i grabbed him.

Ended up moving a few  pieces of rocks and used two nets with a specimen box as a trap and manage to catch the kole tang and the fox face with ,minimal disturbance to the tank., only took me 1.5  hours to cath them both ..will have pics soon.
