They are aggressive and wrecking balls
 
Thanks Shep! I will try to get rid of it! But its not easy to grab him from small holes...
 
is there fish in the tank ?? if not don't feed your tank for a couple of days and use an inverted bottle and put some frozen mysis in there just before lights out by his rock. He will slip in for the food and you can just grab the bottle out
