I thought they were those tiny white star fish. I'm not sure the name. But that is what they look like to me.

yeah they look like some kind of brittle star but i have no idea. they are so so tiny. hopefully they will survive the cycle so i can watch them grow!

I did a lot of looking and asking around and yep thats what it is. I only see him every 3-4 days at night with my red lense flashlight. He can really get around

I got a 3/4" - 1" baby Fuzzy Dwarf Lion, one time. Couldnt figure out what was poking/stinging my hand, when putting the rock in the tank, until the little bugger came out swimming around.
I always read the stories about people getting Mantis, as hitchikers, but I've never gotten one, myself...I've always had to buy them.

that sounds kinda cruel. Many people look to buy mantis shrimp, so instead of throwing him away, go search a little people will pay you money for them.
