If you can catch the tank ?? A copper dip will knck them off Thats is if the things are isopods ? If you could get a good close up that would make it easier . But by what I could see on the picture you posted ?? Thats where I'd start looking .. _________ Some of the world's greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart enough to know they were impossible (Doug Larson) http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m...carrig/aat.gif
