How to catch shrimp?

They always hide under the lowest rock in the tank. I need to move a couple of the Peppermint Shrimps to the QT. Just found another Aptasia in the QT... :grumble:
 
If you can get them to "clean" your hand,you can usually ease the net under them.But you've got to be quick to cover it before they can swim out.
 
One of the Scarlet Skunk cleaner shrimps loves my hand. Every time I put my hand in there and he always run to my hand and start cleaning. The Peppermint shrimps don't seem to come out though.
 
In that case,you might be better off to use something like Apitasia X or Aiptasia Control.I've had good luck with both.
