If anyone wants a Mantis shrimp...

[fishface]

...then you can have him. I just caught the little guy last night and I don't have the heart to kill him. After all, even though I don't want him in my tank, he didn't ask to be there either. I live in Connecticut and would be willing to ship him to you if you pay for the shipping.

If you're in CT, stop by and pick him up.

I'm not sure what exact kind he is, but he's a little over an inch long. When I shine a light on him, he looks purple.

Thanks!

hey fishface, i would love to put it in my HOWLR tank. i live in reno.must talk to wife first and i cant do that till later today. if you still have it tonight, i will get hold of you and let you know.

[fishface]

I didn't think so, but I've heard that some people like these little guys. Darn it...what the heck can I do with him? I don't feel right killing him, but I don't want him in my tank. Has anyone else run into this problem?

Did I mention that he's magic and can grant wishes??? : )

[eaglelox]

I am in CT. Where are you located? I could put the mantis in my Eclipse tank.

I live in Plainfield (Eastern part of the state). I'm not sure what's going to become of Mr. Mantis. Eagleox had told me that he wanted him, but then we found out how expensive it would be to ship him. I'm awaiting word if he still wants him.

If he changes his mind, would you? Are you close by?

[eaglelox]

if you find someone close give it away, give it away, give it away now. but i would still like him.will send day time address. just let me know how much it is.
