aviator300 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I have had "Clarence" for just over 3 months now and had A total knee replacement on both knees a month ago. The recovery from surgery is harder than i anticipated and makes it difficult to care for Clarences tank along with 2 other tanks that i have. I need to find Clarence a new home (locally) and will consider selling him individually but would prefer to sell him and his complete tank. I got him in October from Blue Zoo Aquatics and he is healthy, very interactive, and has a great appetite. (eats live food as well as raw shrimp). He successfully molted 3 weeks ago and has recovered completely. He is dark brown with yellow to maroon striping. Here is the deal... * 3" long Purple Spot Mantis Shrimp. "G. Smithii". * 5 gal PicO Aquariums AIO with Rio 180 filter pump. 1.5" sand bed with a custom PVC den partially under the sand, * 5lbs live rock from "Gulf Live Rock. * Coral frags glued down ( Yellow polyps--Green Zoas--GSP on back wall--red People eaters-- Purple mushroom. * 1" Yellow tail Damsel (Clarence leaves it alone) * large Mexican Turbo snail. * 50 w heater. * Coral Compulsion PAR 30 18K LED * Another Rio 180 powerhead in DT for additional flow. ALL EQUIPT LESS THAN 5 MONTHS OLD. Selling as complete ready to go system in the Phx AZ area 250.00 Will consider selling items separately This is a video of Clarence http://i513.photobucket.com/albums/t336/fsuggs50/th_20141105_145721_zpseyk4fccw.mp4 Link to comment

bdevillier19 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I'm local to you but I have no room for any more tanks in my apartment. The wife would kill me. Although I have always wanted a mantis, and a pico. GLWS Link to comment

acrab78 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Really??? Getting rid of it already after all the drama with getting it??? Sad day my friend... Link to comment
aviator300 Posted January 13, 2015 Author Share Posted January 13, 2015 I agree but i just cant keep up the tank right now but im getting no bites so it may be a moot point. Link to comment
Coolhandreefer Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 GLWS, beautiful mantis you have there! Link to comment
Han Solo Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I'd be really interested in buying the mantis separately. Would you consider this if you still have him? THanks! Link to comment
aviator300 Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 Actually no. He passed away after his tank sprung a leak overnight. Link to comment
