mantis ID?

[72xmulch]

ill see if i can get a picture soon, but i wont be able to get anything too detailed because my camera sucks.... anyway,
hes a smasher, mostly orangish red , with faint yellow highlights on its back and legs, about 2.5 inches long. it is super aggressive and eats anything and will attack just about anything you put in the tank, chopsticks ect... i cant find any pictures of it on roy's list, or on google. doh!

Could be N. wennerae. Where did it come from?

 

[72xmulch]

im really not sure where it came from, i got it from someone else. but that does sound right, it looks like this

what size tank should i keep him in? how old does it live ect? will he really turn green? i like him red....

may be a Lysiosquillina, I'm not sure on the exact taxonomy, but if it is, it will remain red, and get to be about 4" long. Just a guess though.

Beaner, Lysiosquillinas are ginormous spearers. OP said smasher.

OOops, I guess I should read a little more thoroughly, what ever it is, it's pretty darn cool looking! Thank you for pointing out my lack of attention DanInSD !
