    If you are dedicated to 10g size and a predator, I say go with the Mantis.

    i might get the mantis. depends on how much the 20 gal tanks are there. if their not much then i will get one and get a frogfish. if they are a lot or just more than iam willing to pay, then i might get the mantis.

    A frogfish will do great in a 10 gallon they dont move much and most species will not get to big. I am keeping one in a aquapod 12. My frogfish is one of the coolest fish I have ever owned!
