Ryan,
Thanks brother. Ike looks a lot more comfortable with the extra space as well...

Looks great, Chad. What do you stare at more, your monitor or the tank?

Oh, if you get tired of the "Mantis Night in Canada" stand, send me some measurements and I could make a skirt for you at the shop.

Cap'n,
Thank you very much for the offer. I will definitely contact you about that, probably when I bring the tank home.

Cheers


Here is a link to the new video I just made:

Talking

that movie was great. i don't know if its because i am new to the whole reef thing but i would never thing that a mantis shrimp would have that much personality. Ike is a funny little ****. again great movie, and great set up.

Adam,
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. It was a big surprise to me also to see how much personality a mantis shrimp has. Ike probably couldn't be any more alien or different from a dog but for some reason, that's what he most reminds me of...

- Chad
