Well I have had a sweet reef lobster for about 2 1/2 years without incident. A frail wrasse woud come up missing from time to time . I though that they just couldn't hang with my other wrasses. But today after adding a pylei wrasse ,a good healthy one and watching him get along with everyone all evening I woke up to find it in the clutches of the reef lobster. Long story short goodbye reef lobster.. I have defended this guy long enough . Another expensive lesson... Oh btw I back lit the tank with a pc fixture so there were no shadows to hide in and chased him around till it was exhausted. I didnt have to tear down the tank, yea .

Did you catch him with one of those little two pronged lobster forks?

lol,, no he actually survived . Wich wasn't going to make a difference either way once I saw him holding the wrasse. I pinned him with a two pronged propagation tool. He was delivered intact to my lfs, honest...
