MANTIS SHRIMP

Any one have a picture of a mantis shrimp ( I hope that's the right spelling). The ones that make the clicking noise at night.

hmm, I always thought they were one of the nicest looking creatures I've seen in the hobby. A large peacock mantis is just stunning! They will of course kill naything they can get at, but certainly not ugly!

I'll second that!

If I came across a Peacock mantis, I'd have to set up a tank to suit it.

Just a thought about keepinga Mantis. If you had a large display tank and added a smaller (say 33Gal) to kepe some Mantis in. Could you run plumbing (overflow) between the 2 as to share the sump etc etc. Or would the Mantis (or its young) eventually find a way from one tank to the next through the piping....?
