Third time better be the charm

[rmorris_14]

is that your mantis?

Is this a pleasant find / add, or an oh, s#!% moment?

 

[Stang67]

Yep the mantis. First time I caught it out in the open. And it wasn't taking any crap from the nasty damsel. I am so glad that I'm redoing that tank. Bigger and better news. This beauty is now mine. Mwahahaha. Rumor is that they are only allowing 2 at a time wholesale. I got one and he's fragging up the other. Fingers crossed it likes the tank and opens up this week. It was yellow for sure in his tank too.

I actually bought one. I really wanted a peacock but this little guy is super cool.

After I'm done stocking my current system, I plan on building a dedicated mantis habitat. I want my own little "murder bug", too.

It's a Wennerae, yes?

Is that a wennerae or a curacaoensis?

Yes sir.

Wennerae or at least that's what it was sold to me as.

 

[JoJosReef]

I'm tempted to get a curacaoensis. Not sure it'll play nice in a tank with clowns, though...

Tim, it's too early to be winning the internet today.

Unless I'm mistaken, there is a whole section for that sort of thing on PornHub.

I'm sorry @Stang67

Going to let things settle for a bit.
Clown, rock and shrimp are in the tote with heater and airstone. Removed 30g of water and all but a few cups of the old sand. Mixed the old sand with the new.
Hoping to put able to put everything back in either tonight late or tomorrow early am.
Don't want to shock anything so I will be putting some old water back in and then doing small water changes next week.

It really isn't a cult, it's more of a lifestyle.
