Captured Mantis Pic

I was successful in capturing one of my mantis shrimp. Fortunately, I heard the clicking sound and was looking in the right spot at the right time (AFTER WEEKS OF SEARCHING) and saw his little face peaking out of my mushrooms. A week later I saw him out nearly all the way. I removed the rock covered in mushrooms and placed it in wet newspaper. He crawled out in a matter of minutes - 10 to be exact. He's about 2" long. I don't want to kill it. I'll probably take it to the LFS. Any idea what kind it may be?:happy:
