I bought a bunch of aquacultured florida rock and after ridding it of 2 gorilla crabs, I noticed clicking sounds. They became increasingly frequent and one morning I looked and noticed tons of these small brineshrimp-like thingies swimming around. Then I see a mantis shrimp stick its head out of its hole and with its 2 "arms", fling 15-20 little shrimp fry out into the water. This occurred every 20-30 seconds. It was really cool to watch. Anyway, I've had this tank for about a month, and there are at least 2 mantises living in there. It is about 50 lbs. of rock. If anyone is interested in taking it off my hands, I would be willing to make a good deal. I don't want mantises, but a mated pair is just too cool for me to want to kill.
