Woah whats my mantis doing in your tank!?!? HAHA! that is so cool. I hope mine is as active as yours. They look identical. Mine is going to be...
1) 20gal is a little small for a Peacock IMO. O. havanensis is a smaller relative and is more suited for a 20gal. 2) 3" should be plenty. Throw in...
Depends on the mantis. Usually they are fine, but sometimes they will go on killing sprees and kill way more snails/crabs than they actually need to...
Sorry to hear man.
Nice set up and congrats on finding the peacock. Give him some shells and pieces of rubble they like to build stuff too.
Very cool! Thanks for sharing the pictures. Did you have any trouble getting it to eat?
They will be fine. There was a member on here with a black/white clown and an orange/white clown in a breeding pair. I can't remember his handle...
Rock looks good. Doesn't look like it has any bad hitch hikers either. Definitely no mantis with it being as thin as it is.
Yep its the point thing between his eyes. The spine stays the same size though its the ocular scale that changes and it is difficult to impossible...
Thats a nice pico. How often do you top off? Is it automatic?
Mostly you ID them by using body shape. Assuming it is in the family Gonodactylidea, you can determine if it is in the gonodactylus genus by (1)...
Sorry to hear. Interesting looking mantis thats for sure. What color was the back?
I'd rather be alone in a nano tank. 10gal is only large enough for one damsel to establish territory, IME. If you add another fish it will be...
I used to wait until Fister (my wennerae) went hunting before I fed him that way I knew he was actually hungry, and wasn't just storing the food. G....
A guy I worked with had a oscar that would spit gravel out of the tank if it was hungry, thats an interesting personality trait. Stomatopods have...
Those clowns are hideous! Send them to me, and I will put them in my tank so it doesn't ruin yours. ;D;D;D
I usually feed once a week with a chunk of krill, silversides etc. You can go less frequently than that if you prefer. The less often you feed the...
Happy 21st! The most fun, and the last fun birthday. After this its all just another number so make it fun!
Macrorocks is cheap because it is dry "base" rock. It doesn't have any of the bacteria or algae that makes people consider live rock to be live....
Shark eggs are the way to go. A shark costs like $300 or an egg costs around $50.
