Firstly can I apologise in advance.
This mantis is so fast, and my tank scaped so, that i'm finding it extremely difficult to get a pic.
This is my first post on this forum and am looking for some general advice.
He's been about since I set the tank up but have never saw him until today.
I've looked at a couple of photos in the forum, and my guy looks like Wennerae. It's a lime green colour, along with a drab browny colour. He's about 2.5 inches long.
The thing is - I have fijian live rock, so can't be 100% on the ID.
In general terms though, should I attempt to remove from my reef tank? I have lost a number of snails/crabs. Will he take fish? Sorry to be vague, but can anyone give me some general advice about mantis in reef tanks?
Many thanks in advance.
