Or you could try a baited bottle trap.
But that wouldn't give you the opportunity to re-scape the tank and get your misses interested.

Nothing would get my misses interested......she likes the 10 second glance ...but that's it!!
A bottle trap won't work ....as pistols are super clever ,and can swim... ....something where a lid closes after the bait has been taken.........maybe I should watch SAW movies

I was thinking you would have to site the trap at the front of the tank and wait for it to enter.
If you are handy I am sure you could make a little swinging trap door to trap it.

Yup.
And a nice little red torch so you can see without disturbing the little critter.
Or if you make a trap with a trap door you can find the little bugger at a more civilized hour (if it works).
