    Also, some rogue hermits seemed to pick at my STPC (see pic) hopefully it will recover. The frogspawn has been enjoying life. The Rhodactis' seemed to be doing good and opened up almost 30 minutes after acclimation.

    Here's two FTS.

    I really love your tank. I have a mantis in my tank too but no idea where he is. I think you have done awesome for how small the tank is.

    What lights are you using?

    Thanks, there are 2 heads, but the skeleton has four. 2 heads died at the LFS before i got it.
    Thanks! What species of mantis do you have? N. wennerae and peacock mantis seem to be pretty active/interactive.

    I keep my tank under a par38 7 bulb LED.
    Thanks! ;D

    Are you sure that mantis is N. wennerae? It really looks like a peacock

    Well my LFS said it either will grow to 3" or 10". The guy said he gets them at the same size and sometimes they only grow to 3" and sometimes they grow to 10". I trust the guy and worse case scenario i have a 150-200$ shrimp in my tank if it does grow to 10".

    And thanks ;D
