Hi everyone, my SPS tank has taken off but I had a bubble tip split about 5 times. Little worried they are gonna sting the SPS and looking for an easy way to remove them.

anyone got any ideas? I can’t blast them, Per se as they are right next to some SPS. The little orange specks below

Some divers who collect wild nems posted about a technique. Get a 2" pvc tube a foot long. Cut a sponge into the shape of a big donut. Put tube in donut hole. Place donut over nem, angled away from overhead light. It is the natural tendency of the nem to seek out light when covered, he'll see the light at the end of the tube and move into the tube.
Worth a try.
