How to catch a crab

Hey Everyone

I have a new reef setup (DEC 04) everything was going good UNTIL i noticed a HUGE crab, It had to be 1 1/2- 2 inches, mostly white with red markings ripping a large mexican turbo snail apart.
Now the question is how do i get it out of there??I tried taking the rock out of the water but he's must be hiding in a part of the rock I can't get to.

Any Suggestions??

Thanks

Take a tall drinking glass and rinse it real well. Prop the glass against a rock at a pretty steep angle. Place a piece of shrimp in the glass.

Wait for crab to enter. It took me 2 hours to get 3 crabs out of my old tank using this method.
