If the SOB touches my prized green milli and A. desalwii colonies again this might happen I swear I almost skewered the bastard today when I saw that.

But then I reminded myself that I'm the bigger fish and above that...

Last resort, seal the hole of that, according to your term, SOB's hangout and let it suffer!

Naw, it's an endless network of tunnels. Might as well fill every nook and cranny on the rock with epoxy.

I saw someone propose the use of vacuum cleaner :|

Similarly, you can put a hose near its territory and just suck the sucker up! (And don't stop if you like sushi )

Not worth it

I used a very small hook and line to catch a wrasse. His mouth healed in a couple of days.
