It’s a shame they aren’t reef safe, they are cute.

I can mail it to you if you want one ;-)
I finally found the mantis shrimps home. next water change I will take the rock out and put it in a bucket. Though I'm not sure yet what the fastest method will be to get him to crawl out. I'll probably wait and see if the LFS would want it. my thought is no.

I tell you what, the next time you find one alive toss it in your sump and feed it heavily. When it gets meal size mail it but let me know when you do so I can make sure I have butter to melt when it arrives.

I'll include the nut crackers. Might make great mini crab cake appetizers.

This build looks great. Impressive tank and that sump is slick! Giving me lots to think about for an upcoming build. Following along

You’ll learn a lot from @BubblesandSqueak , he has been mentoring me and with his help I have been able to turn my tank around.

I think the voted name was Eelvira, or might have been Eelvis. Need to check with the kids again.

I never managed to catch my 3 mantis that came in on gulf live rock. We have made our peace, they leave the fish alone and I feed them hermits and snails.

Cut the lawn today. Winter time the sun is lower and reflects off the floor and into the tank some so the grass grows quicker. But so does the calerpa.

That is a beautiful rock.

seems to be the only one with calerpa. Last time I lifted the rock there was a 6" brittle star under it. They seem to stay under the rocks.

Great thread Bubbles, just read through again start to finish. Thats one heck of a journey over the year.

the mini bull dozer to churn the sand was very active today. even decided to swim to the surface. unfortunately I see that it's a she. so will eventually be on the bigger side so will be thinking hard on this one. thinking to set up a small pond as a touch tank. Pre formed 300 gal pond with a large side tank for all the rock? Also still waiting on my Harlequin.
