Dip the rock in freshwater and he should come out of the rock. I never add anything to my tank from someone else's tank, never know what is there or has soaked in the rock. I kill the rock then let my system re-seed the bacteria. _________ Scott 265g (Peninsula)

Wow. He must be a baby for you to have not noticed him. Do you have a spare 10 gallon tank or something like that lying around that he can go in as a quarantine tank? Good luck. Ask any questions if you get any.
