    Well i setup a 20 gallon long Glass aquarium Lined 5inch all around with lexan...yup u guess it for a peacock mantis shrimp. Anywayz i picked him up for a pretty good price...So grabed some water from my reef tank and filled up the 20 gallon...water was great new base sand new filter etc...awesome tanksetup for the little guy. As i begin my acclimation process the bucket he came in was half way full so as i go to remove some water (i drained it into my fuge...he comes out jumping into my tank....and within 5-10 min die's from shock. I been waiting for this guy for so long. I have great Luck....but its all bad!
