lol yea....the "grave yard"look got old quick. Figured id try to find a way to recycle the shells....still dunno where ima go with it. Origianlly wanted to build a castle. Clearly forgot my mantis is like 5 and a half inches give or take. We'll see when i get more "supplies" to build the structure where i go with it.:frog:

Wonderful tank. May inspire me to do one. I have always been fascinated with them, but only as a diver, never as an aquarist.

New bulbs......changed the scape a lil and his raptorial is damaged from hitting things, also has two spots on his shell. Hoping its not shell rot.
