Mantis Shrimp...
 

Just out of curiousity... Is anyone in the vancouver area interested in a 1 inch red/pink mantis shrimp?

Thanks.

I would love to take it but if you won't ship would have to hold it until I come down at Christmas.

I would be interested

Here's a picture.

This is where Ivy says "Suckers, you can't have it," and we all shake our fists with grave resolve to give her dirty looks from now henceforth.

I have a frying pan, butter and some garlic. :mrgreen:

As the saying goes.... it probably tastes like chicken. :rolleyes:

hah.. actually.. I found him 2-3 weeks ago while rumbling around in my office tank. I feel he should have a better home than a 1g Azoo Tank so thought I'd put the feelers out to see if anyone would be able to offer him the luxurious life he deserves :)

On another related note, we found a pure black mantis in WWWD's tank last night. around 2 inches... I have to say tho, my red one is more playful and actually comes out during the day. and by that I mean.. he runs around screaming when I poke wooden skewers into his cave to see if he's still alive...

.. no.

I'm not mean.

I can't tell what kind he is.


he also looks like this.

Are these pics of the mantis or just ones that look like him?


If anyone has a peacock mantis we'd be all over it :mrgreen:
