Mantis shrimp
 

I am thinking of selling/trading/whatever my two mantis shrimp so I wanted to see what kinda interest there is.

Steve

the other is smaller and emerald green.

Steve

What would you take for the larger one?

Clinton

do you keep them both in the same tank (I'd imagine not?)

very interesting critter. I am very interested for some reason. Probably because I have been looking for an excuse to setup a tank in my office...

I'd have to come out to the island to pick him up tho.. hmmm.

Bring them over Steve.... :mrgreen:

actuqaly they are both in the same tank, they seam to not bug each other and the smaller one is very fast :mrgreen:

Steve

I guess shipping them won't be a good idea as it is quite cold and would pe pretty expensive. concidering this we should limit it to people that would be able to pick them up or at least walk on the ferry and I can meet you with them..

Steve

Ok so I made up my mind they are both for sale/trade, the larger is about 4" long and the small one is about 2" long.

Steve

Why aren't you in Calgary :question: I am searching for a critter for my 20H that contains nothing but Zoanthids, and a few fuzzy sticks. Evan has one for sale, but I would have to spend $500.00 to buy the tank it is in :sad:
Oh, well I guess I will go and look for a CBS today. At least he will eat Bristleworms when he gets hungry. :mrgreen:

Bob what size is a 20H? I know my 25 is the same footprint as a regular 20 but it is taller.

Steve

24"LX12"WX16"H :biggrin: :eek:

if these don't go soon, they might be going ot the fish store, but I would rather see them go to a hobbiest.

Steve

How much would u sell the big one for?

I noticed you are in toronto, and I am not comfterble shipping them. sorry about that, if you were in Van and could do a ferry swap it would be different.

Steve

If only you could find a way to get one to Calgary. I have just set up a 10 gallon nano in my living room. It has nothing in it at all. That would be perfect for a Mantis. :sad:
