travisurfer Posted January 28, 2010 Share Posted January 28, 2010 Tank/Mantis looks great! I would advise on trying to put a little bit more rock in there if at all possible to give the mantis some more tunneling structures for his caves. If (s)he has more space to hide, she'll likely be less stressed. G. viridis appears to me like an accurate ID as well. If you want to be absolutely certain, Roy Caldwell over on those other forums can be much more definitive. Good luck. Link to comment

I agree that some more rock would be good...I'll be adding some before long. I'll actually be completely switching the rock soon because the ones in there have some hydroids and caulerpa that I don't want. He/she seems to be pretty comfortable already though, venturing around and eating off a stick. I posted an ID thread over there so hopefully Roy will check in soon. Link to comment

nUgZ Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 Well...the mantis died a couple weeks ago. I forgot to post about it, but the tank has been torn down. I gave most of the stuff to a friend of mine. Passing on the addiction! Thanks for looking! Link to comment
