My flame BTA recently split, and my rose is about to do the same. It’s a small tank, so I can’t afford to have these roaming around. They’ve settled into a couple unfortunate spots, how best to dislodge them without harm so I can post for sale?

Point your powerhead directly at them to irritate them and snag em when they start to move. Works best and quickest if you point it at them while sucking in some air from the surface so its full of bubbles. I'e seen this method work in a matter of minutes.

If they are on a rock you can remove
Turn upsidedown over saltwater just enough to touch the water. They will drop off. I often put a little breeder box under and they drop or walk off the rock. Gl.
