Mantis at Aquarium Concepts!

[Crawling68]

Aquarium Concepts in Hayward currently has 3 4"-5" Lysosquilla Malculatas, a 3" G. Chiragra, and a 6" O.S. Just a heads up!

 

[Hattie B]

I am so going there tonight.. Just to check them out!

[Crawling68]

Why just to check them out, im sure one them would love to go home with you.

 

[speedsport]

LOL! yep I bet one would.

 

[Uriel]

I just called, and ythe guy on the phone estimated the L. maculata as 9" each or so...

Crawlings, does this seem like me may be guessing too large?

I am really tempted, if they are smaller, although from what I have heard, they don't do much of anything, entertainment-wise.

I am tempted to try for that P. cilata over at the shop in Fremont, but 30 bucks for a P. cilata seems a bit steep.

As Dr. Roy stated, we always over estimate, although they could be a little bigger. That Ciliata is real nice though, kinda of yellow, orange.

 

[twocoloreyes]

what are they charging for each mantis?

 

[Uriel]

Ach,twocoloreyes...don't steal my P. cilata, I'm heading out tomorrow to get him...

:|

I was told, regarding the price of the L. maculata between 40-60 bucks.

 

[Hattie B]

Crawlings,

maybe I can have your mantis?

(in my 135 I recently removed a mantis becuase I lost some snails and hermits, didn't know I had one, don't know what kind it was)

Now I came here, to the Mantis Forum, and I want one... So I am going to get another tank..

[Crawling68]

You want my mantis? Samus is not for sale!

 

[Hattie B]

Maybe we can share?

I live in Fremont too.. 6m/6m deal?

Maybe let you pet one of my horses or something..

 

[Uriel]

Tango/Amber, there are two great looking mantis in SF, at 6th avenue aquarium. A G. chiraga, an a G. glabrous, I think. both are 20 bucks or so, 2-3", feisty...

[Crawling68]

Ya , whats up, your not afraid to own one, are you?

 

[Hattie B]

A little.



I like hermit crabs.

Amber


Ron-

Thanks for the info. I am going to be setting up a tank in the near future for one. I just find them fasinicating, but I need to learn more about them before I get one..

 

[Hattie B]

ps.. what night club do you work at?

 

[Crawling68]

Well since your in the F, you can come check out Samus' setup. They are really not as evil and vile as everyone thinks, and easy to take care of.

ps.. what night club do you work at?

I work behind the bar at DNA Lounge on 11th & Harrison.
I'm the guy with the long blue hair, pretty easy to spot.


My tagline should be 'Will Trade drinks/guestlist for Frags!"

-Ron
PS: If you (or anyone) want to come by, let me know, I'm pretty easy with the guestlist & drinks for my fellow mantis enthusiasts/reefers.

Just semd me a PM here on RC.

 

[Hattie B]

That would be cool to see Samus.. I'm making LFS stops today; see if the mantis are still at AQ.


Ron-
I've been there before..

One of my gilrfriends and I used to go to the Holy Cow whenever we went to the city to go dancing.. Or Polyesters... We went to the DNA lounge a couple times becuase it was open later...

That tag line would surly fit.
