I wonder if there is anyone on these forums with several thousand dollar fishes.
I have been trying very hard to get a smithii. I have literally been searching for one since i made my thread. :( I had no luck. Best I could...
Not to mention peacock mantis are one of the easier ones to find. Wennerae are pretty easy to find but don't have much personality. They are active...
30 gallon is great for a peacock mantis. You should get one of those.

Thats my first choice but it will probably end up being whatever I can find.
Yep. I am going to set up some PVC tunnels and stuff for him. Yeah a 24 or 28 gal would be fine. He however would not be good in my 10 gal...
I can't either haha. I would also like to see some more rocks. I still need to make something to keep him away from the heater.
Yeah I would research it before getting one. There are a lot of different species of mantis. Most of them will not be able to crack the glass,...
