New Natural attacks

I am trying to enter the Rhagodessa for the savage tide adventure path. It has two natural attacks with "Pedipalps" that cause no damage but allow it to use its racial featue of improved grab. I tried to copy the teiflings claw attack in the R Cust Special tab. I changed some of the tags to try and get it to work. I changed the helper secondary tag to helper NatPrimary and changed AllowRCust rTiefling to rRhagodess. I also added a Value tag of 2. I can not seam to get it to appear on the weapon tab of my monster. I would like to delete the wMain tag as it dose no damage but have left it thinking that it might not have appeared due to no value...but this is not the problem.

Try the Octopus' tentacles for a good example of a natural attack with no damage that still has the grab special.

Check the bootstraps on a wondrous item called "Fleshcrafting Poison: Stinging Tail" to see how to rename an existing natural attack to serve the purposes you want here - I'd say a tentacle is the most appropriate weapon to base pedipalps on.
