What do you do for work? Are you in an authority role?

Reason I ask is I am and if I could, I would loved to have a Mantis Shrimp in my office. Just screams "Mess with me and I'm holding your fingers in"

As a matter of fact I am in an authority role. I own and run my own shop. As for a Mantis, I might be a little worried about glass breaking. I like them but I think I would rather have them in a larger, thicker tank.

maybe a nice mollie or make a tank just with some sexy shrimp. that would be cool.

Molly's I have had and a lot of people dont know that they can go in salt water if you are patient, however I have had them before and I am going for a different look. Thought about a Pistol shrimp with a Goby, but I am still debating that too. It might boil down to seeing what members have for sale locally or going out one Sunday to a few LFS's and making my decision that day. I am in no major hurry so we will see...Keep those suggestions coming..

Own a run a shop with a fish tank in the office eh'...where do I apply?

How thick is the glass?

A pistol shrimp/goby combo would be awesome with some LPS/softies.

Or you could go with a natural fuge'. There is a thread on RC right now with some great display fuge's, which look awesome and would be unique.

instead of a nano you could do a pico.
