I have had a mantis or pistol in my tank for over a year now. I have only seem it once and grabbed the rock it was in. But it must have hopped rocks as I was pulling it out because it's still in there. I have tried the pop bottle, the store bought trap, and the food in the nylon trick. It has beaten me. I now have an agreement with it. I will over feed to include him and he will leave my fish and crabs alone. The Snails are still in negotiations
Good luck, if you come up with anything new that gets him please share
