Default I am a lucky man
My wife is in calgary visiting her mother and I just got a phone call.

"Hi I'm at Red Coral and I have picked out 2 clams for you but they have a peacock mantis as weel would you like it too?"

I HAVE HAD A TANK SET UP FOR ONE FOR NEAR 3 MONTHS NOW SO UMMM YESSSS!

So in a couple hours I have some new tank inhabitants. Yay me

Just kidding you are a lucky man. It is a gorgeous mantis. I'll miss watching it chase the silversides around the tank,(aggressive eater). Enjoy.
