Default Peacock Mantis at Rogers
If anyone is looking for a Peacock Mantis shrimp I saw one yesterday at Roger's Aquatics. It is a female.

They are really cute.

I saw two at J&L over the weekend and really wish I had a tank for one.

would one of those nano cubes be enough to support it say 6 - 12 gallons?
or will u need something a lot bigger for when it grows?

I have been told by someone who keepy many that for most species, a 10 gallon will suffice.

some breeds are...
but the stories of that actually happening are very few and far between.
try and find a story like that online...you probably won't.
