That a great looking mantis how much did you pay for it and do they ship them? I'm in georgia looking for one and no luck. Also what size tank/rock/sand is that?

 

[Angel7989]

i bought it for $15. It is a 25 gallon tank with about 13 lbs of live rock and like 30 lbs of live sand. nothing real special... i can ask the LFS today if they'd be wiling to ship to you.
