Default mantis shrimp

Big Als has a zebra mantis shrimp. Read that big ones have been caught but never realized this huge in the aquarium trade (had to be nearing a foot).

It looked like it was dying when I saw it. Pretty much on its side not moving. But huge...Also I didn't notice a price for it. Any idea?

Looks like a trip to Big Al's is in my near future, since now I'm very curious! I went tonight to see it and I'm glad to say he looked healthy and we got to see him eat, very cool!
