    Very nice! Jwin has the exact same "tank mate" for his mantis, Princess - his name is Orca!

    And Orca wasn't supposed to be dinner! They've been together in the tank for probably about 8 months now.

    Love the tank its awesome. By the way did you say you added a diamond goby? They are one of my favorites but I thought a 20 gallon would be too small, I was going to put one in mine.

    What kind of filtration are you running on your tank? Also, what kind of lighting system do you have for it?
