if you need a clean up crew for your mantis tank just get a couple of turbo snails the size of pool balls. i have 2 they seem to have thick shells.

Nice, I think I'll do that. I am having a custom built 19 gallon Acrylic tank made. It will have a footprint comparable to a 30 gallon tank.

My LFS is supposed to be calling me anytime with the quote. They are using 1/2 inch Acrylic which is an overkill but I think 1/4 will bow. I will post as soon as they call me. It's dimensions are 20x17x12. I am really hoping it's under $100.00........

They actually sub the work out. They just called me a bit ago and said it would cost $289!!! :scared:
I told them to cram it. I am going to post in the DIY forum and ask what I should expect to pay.

Diablo is such a great name. I still have named mine yet. He molted the other week too. I was going to remove it but he sat on it and then it disappeared a couple of days later. Freaky stuff!!!
I will post some pics when I get my new tank. It should be either the end of this week or next!!!

Lionfish are more beautiful in my opinion. But to each his own, Mantis are still really pretty though.
