haha that's awesome...the only reason I saw him was probably because he was starving and his meal was running toward the front of my tank.

UPDATE
I caught the mantis tonight, actually he got himself stuck in one of the overflows!!! The traps were hopeless, he doesn't like anything except live crab and snails. I hope he develops a taste for raw shrimp.

Oh right! Tonight I'll post some glam shots. He's just a common Gonodactylus, mottled dark green/brown with no fancy coloring. I think he's a smithii because of the dark meral spot with the white ring.

He looks exactly like this one: http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/arthrop..._chiragra3.jpg

Here's the best picture I could get of him. He looks a lot darker in person.
