    Came in on live rock. Approximately 1" long. Need to pick up today (May 28).

    Update: found another mantis - this one is about 2 inches. Very pretty. Anyone want some interesting critters?

    If no one takes him call one of the local pet stores here in Des Moines that deal in saltwater sure one will take it. I would but have no place. Please don't dispose of it!

    Looks like a smasher not a spearer. Spearers are found in sand burrows not in rock.

    If Cameron doesn't, I'll take them. I have a 30 gallon QT tank that has never been used for any fish and it'd be a pretty easy conversion into a mantis tank. Let me know.
