Based Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 Hopefully getting my mantis this week! The 1st time they tried to get me one the wholesaler sent them a 3.5" peacock and the second time they order one they never received it, they put in another order for one this week, they just call and ask for small green mantises, so keep your fingers crossed!

Tamberav Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Goodluck! Every place seems to suck at IDing mantises Link to comment
Based Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 Well I'm pretty sure it will be an wennerae because its one of the more common mantises to find, if it has the white metal spots ill end up getting it Link to comment
Based Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 Well the girl got freaked out because she saw that a peacock mantis was 120$ on some site and they ended up selling it for $35, who ever bought it got a amazing deal as I usually see them between 50-60$ for the size they had which was 3.5" Link to comment
Tamberav Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 So they didn't have your mantis? I'm confused Link to comment
Based Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 Not yet the 1st time it was a peacock, the 2nd Time they didn't recieve it, and now they ordered me another one Link to comment
Tamberav Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Not yet the 1st time it was a peacock, the 2nd Time they didn't recieve it, and now they ordered me another one Ah, I was just confused about the $35 peacock. Link to comment
Based Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 yeah they wanted it gone and i go on michiganreefers to see what stores got what in and she pm'd me not knowing peacocks were expensive and asking if $35 was too cheap, its a good deal for who ever bought it but they got the mantis in for free i believe. I hope the mantis i get is good with corals Link to comment
Based Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 dang i dont think they got one in, maybe i will order one well hopefully they get it in their thursday shipment Link to comment
Tamberav Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 dang i dont think they got one in, maybe i will order one well hopefully they get it in their thursday shipment At least you're being responsible instead of just buying a peacock and jamming it in a 3g tank like some buttheads would do.

Based Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 2 rocks fell today so I took the oppurtunity to make the scape more open for I can view the mantis more often Link to comment
Tamberav Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Neat scape, good thing they fell now. Wouldn't want a squished mantis Link to comment

Based Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 Once i fix my algae problem in my 28 ill post up some pics of that in a different forum! Link to comment
Based Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 I want to introduce some coraline algae to this system, whats the best way to do it? I got a plug that has coraline on it and im going to scrape it off, where should i put the scrapings at? In crevices? In the filter for it spores out? Link to comment
Tamberav Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Just scrape it off in the water, should be fine. It will take awhile to show up though. You could also just put a plug/small rock that has coralline on it in there. Link to comment
Based Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 none of my small rocks have coraline on them my old tiger pistol shrimp took all of my mall rocks with coraline and used them for building materials. And the plug has my tree le toadstools on them, dont really want to put that with my mantis Link to comment
