Hi all... I seeded a refugium with amphipods originally intending to QT them before putting in my DT but now I can't really catch or find them. I see them at night but don't know how to gather them up to move to my DT...

I tried to make a trap before but only caught one. Does anyone have a good design to use?
Like Im not sure if the trap should be clear/transparent or opaque... which type of bait should I use... etc...

oh and I dont want to use one of those "pod hotels" unless you have a design that uses bait because there's already plenty of places in the tank for them to hide, there is no reason they would go into a pod hotel.
