Thought it was funny that it made headlines.
Kinda got scared tho when I read about the 10 inch mantis mangling that divers finger so bad it had to be amputated.

I just went there about a month ago. Didn't see him(LOL). It is a very nice aquarium. They just got done with a 1.5 million gal tank. There was tuna swimming in there bigger then me. I was amazed. They also had the organism that create their own light. Those were cool. I had a great time and that is what got me into salt water aquariums. <img src="graemlins//freak.gif" border="0" alt="[freak]" />

Very cool ;) An LFS in my area has a tank set up with a 10" peacock mantis shrimp, very colorful, and exrtremely good at tearing small fish in half <img src="graemlins//eek.gif" border="0" alt="[eek]" /> Thanks for the link ;)

Awesome story. Thanks! I am going to bookmark it.
I had a mantis shrimp once, it was hard to get rid of. I eventually took a rock out that he went into, put it in a bucket with some tank water, and when he came out of the rock, I pulled the rock out of the bucket.
He was big and nasty, cut my finger pretty bad!
