Naperville, IL?
I saw one at Old Orchard Aquarium yesterday.

Thanks Olivia

 

[fishman630]

Thanks, but they refuse to give me a price over the phone and I refuse to drive an hour just to find out it's overpriced.

What a bunch of jerks.

 

[olivia640]

That's nasty of them.

I might go back there later this week. If it's still there I'll ask them how much it is.

 

[fishman630]

BTW: Still looking for one....

No info about the place, but I found this online:

I'm looking too, so if you find one, please post the source.

I went back to Old Orchard Aquarium and I completely forgot to price check the peacock for you. Sorry. The tiny mantis I bought there was $39, so I'm guessing the 3+ inch peacock they have is more expensive. I've seen them at Old Town Aquarium too. I don't know if they have any in stock now, but last time I saw one there it was around $90.

 

[fishman630]

Thanks anyways.. Even if you had remembered I seriously doubt I would have bought it from them.

39 dollars? thats crazy, i see 3 1/2 - 4 inch peacocks for around 30 bucks around here.

 

[BLockamon]

JmLee, you're lucky. A small zebra mantis runs $65 around here.

 

[SkinnyPete]

Yup, my lfs are getting 2 peacocks tomorrow and they are charging $75 each.

 

[n00b2SWF]

Wow...pretty expensive.

 

[Thurge]

$75 is rediculously expencive.

 

[JmLee]

agreed, 75 dollars is way to much.

Thank just got one this afternoon from fishsupply.com.

Ask to get on the waiting list and they should be able to get you one in a week or so. $55 + shipping. I needed a few other things so it worked out well with the shipping.
