The 20

[Uslanja]

I have found several cucumbers on the LR. This is one in stages of opening.

This is how the unidentified clam looked this morning.

I moved a small tongo rock that was in the 37 fuge into the 20. The mushroom seems to be doing ok so far.

And of course...the star of the show!

Sweet, a mantis!

Hi Devon. I have 5 Hermit crabs and 4 Asterea snails in the tank. I watched Manni hammer one of the snails that ventured too near his favorite doorway. but so far all have survived. I have only been feeding him about once every 3 days. I have thought that maybe I will hold off and see if he gets hungry enought to go hunting. I would love to see that!

Just a few random shots.

If i go 4 days without feeding and I drop a Turbo in there she will get it before it hits the bottom... good times

Thanks Devon! Your Mantis is gorgeous, and a fair bit larger than my little guy!

The new mantis tank is looking great !

U figure out what kind of mantis it is?

I'm Matt n I hate heaters.

 

[Uslanja]

Hi Matt! From everything that I have searched, he appears to be a Neogonodactylus wennerae.

Thanks Glenn! I am having a blast with it. I enjoy all of our tanks(5 in all plus the 37 fuge). I think this one really appeals to me because he was a rescue mantis. It was easy, I bought the rock I spotted him in, and the rest is history!

Well, all is going great with Manni. We picked up 10 small black legged Hermit crabs last Friday when Dave and I took a quick trip to our favorite store after work. Manni has been busy devouring the supply of crabs that we had, so it was the perfect reason to go. While we were there, I spotted this rock with some beautiful squirts on it. It came home with us, and is now in Manni's tank.
