Any suggestions on catching a coral banded shrimp?

I have a 100 Gallon Reef with one CBS and he thinks he rules the tank. He has claimed a large cave in the rocks and whenever a fish come near him he takes a chunk out of them. He has already managed to kill a Yellow Eye Tank, a Gold Stripe Maroone and two Firefish. It's time for this guy to go, but I have no idea what will work when trying to catch him. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Try luring it out of it's cave with a piece of shrimp or some other food. I had to do the same with a coral banded. I first laid the net above the cave, then lured him out and snagged him.

To remove a rabid Peppermint shrimp that was eating my Xenia, I just laid a net in the tank with some meaty food in it, turned the light off, and waited.
