crabs new 24" cube

[i have crabs]

ok ive been really slackin on the updates so i guess i should,
basically the mantis wrecked my tank, i helped but im blaming him,
i hadnt seen the dam mantis for a long time even though im always lookin and i was startin to think maybe hes dead or somethin, so i was at golds and saw some peppermint shrimp and thought ok if the shrimp lives the mantis has to be a gonner, well soon as the peppermint floated from the top of the tank down to the closes coral guess who shows up for dinner, boom gone about 3-5 seconds in the tank, i was a bit ****ed but how mad could i really be,
so after stewing about this at work all the next day i though whatever im gonna pull that rock out and get that sob and if i have to ill rip out every rock, guess what... ya i ripped out every rock,did a little fresh water dipping, did a little coral smashing too. no mantis
so the next day i loaded up on soda water,kalkwasser,hot water ect.. ripped out every rock again,basicly did some bad stuff to some good rock and guess what... no mantis
however i did get to practice restacking rock in a cloudy tank which dosent go well when every rock is 10-15 lbs ea and covered on corals ya ya i know never touch the rock..
well 90% of the coral got broken off the rocks during this and some were out of water for a while so i wasnt expecting good things when i got home, the tank was still quite cloudy, corals wernt looking good, and the rocks didnt even come close to fitting back in the tank, i did some waterchanges, move as many corals down into my other reef which was already packed without another 10 corals and a bunch of frags, i was so mad at this point that i just left the tank for close to a week,
i was really thinking about selling the dam thing or putting it in a closet for a while but once i quit being so mad i feel better,i tried to get the rocks back to where they were but even with pictures i couldnt do it, so there almost the same but i took out 1 10lbs rock that i couldnt get to fit anywhere so the tanks not so full but im ok with how it looks,
just tonight i moved a couple corals back into the tank, i havnt remounted any but i set them in there to make shure everything goes ok,
i also bought another pepermint shrink and put him in a bottle with holes in the lid, i was tryin to see if i could catch the mantis watching him but no luck, the shrimp escaped through a hole in the lid on day 3 and was spotted in the tank at night still alive after a couple days so thats a good sign,

was that long enough for ya, ill get some pics up soon
