my mantis shrimp smashes all of his snails and crabs in his house and then puts the broken shells in the roof of his cave kinda likegrout or something. Just out of curiosity how do you tell if it is a male or female?

outtafocus,
Oh ya, Ike has never given me back a single shell... he's got a serious stash in there. They really like to fortify their bunkers - infact I caught Ike breaking off chunks of my sps to use as building materials. After I saw that, I moved some LR rubble to block his cave entrance better so that he doesn't feel the need to continue harvesting material for the 'sps beaver dam' he was working on...

that's a cool tank! I have the exact same tank with a smithii in there. Do you find the Ac filter too much flow? For my heater I have one of those little 7w hydor heaters. Only problem I have with it is you can't turn it on or off.

Very cool..

I would ditch the heater in there. You can get heating pads for a small tank that are 7.5 watts. You can buy them at Pisces for $20. Chiragra are extremely hard hitters.

What color is that Chiragras Meral spots though? Can you get a pic?
