    He probly wants to kill it because it is a pest. If left unchecked it will spread through out the tank and choke off stuff we spent money on. I use a 1 cc syringe with a small needle and lemon juice to inject them and it has worked very well. They can be difficult to get without a prescription but if you have a friendly diabetic friend......
