Free mantis shrimp to good home..No shipping

[05xrunner]

I have Mantis shrimp that I have had for about 7months.
I am taking down that 20gal to make my new lagoon tank.
So She has to go. eats frozen squid. Some reason it has turned pure white. i guess to blend in with the sand. Either way She is free
I am in Pittsburgh PA

My eyes darted so fast to your location when I saw no shipping, too bad you're in PA

yea sorry, I dont mind shipping coral I dont wanna ship something that actually has a brain and knows whats going on and get freaked out.
She is now spoken for by a local reef guy

I completely understand. I would be too nervous shipping live things (other than corals...and still will be nervous the first time I do that too

). I'm glad she went to a good home

she came out so I snapped a few quick shots before she goes to her new home tonight

wow! She changed that color?!
That's awesome how some animals can do that..

I really like the white, I haven't seen one like that before. Very unique

Stinks you had to let her go...but a lagoon will be incredible...would love to see the progress as it goes, I think a diary thread would be in order
