I am new to this hobby and noticing people are interested in various things.. some people want SPS corals only other just fish etc. I am wondering what draws people to wanting a mantis tank.. Am I correct in saying that?

Dan,
Don't count out the stomatopods too quickly. The current speed record is held by the trap-jawed ants as reported by Sheila Patek. However, only two three stomatopods have been measured, L. maculata, G. chiragra and O. scyllarus - all in water. Also, these individuals were all large with massive appendages to accelerate. It is possible that smaller, lighter smashers filmed in air could be much faster.
