Yay!!! I finally got my mantis shrimp....actually 3 :)
 

Yay!!! I went to Big Al's today .... just to look around ... and I thought I would ask if they could order in a Mantis shrimp. Well the guy told me that they have 3 hitchhiking on a Xmas Worm Coral. Needless to say I took all three home with me :) They're so tiny ....and soooo ultra cool :)

Just had to share. :D

Very cool little creatures. I don't suppose you can post pictures of them?

You are aware that they are cannibals? :?

What ReefRaf said :wink: .

You also may want to check out ReefCentral. They have a Mantis Shrimp forum with tonnes of info :) .

Yep .... done lots of research before getting one. I wasn't expecting 3 but now that we have them....we'll try to accommodate all three with separate housing. But for now they're so small and since they're all burrowed in their worm tubes, we'll leave them as is. Eventually each will get their own tanks.

And I'll try to get picks of them when they get a little bit bigger. They're so small right now its hard to see them.

Great!!! have lots of fun with them they are too cool :wink: . Mine's a little female Peacock 8) .
