[ssericz]

Please help me figure out what it is I was referred here by a few on nano reef looks like a mantis kinda
Came out a coral when I was cutting it

How to raise it without letting into tank?

I saw this over on NR. Awesome little guy. Was it a piece of rock he came out of or a coral?

Just set up a 5 gallon tank with some rock and pvc fittings, heater, and let him relax in there until you decide what to do with him.

It does not look like a mantis to me. Try posting this in the Other Inverts section.

Yeah, I don't think that's a mantis.

I can't tell from the pic, but maybe a Caprellid Amphipod (Skeleton shrimp)?
