Awesome tank!!! I use to have a female peacock for over a year. She was awesome and believe it or not I'd had feed her too.
This makes me wanna start up a mantis tank! congrats! I tried to play games with "neytiri" with a laser pointer and also to try to entertain her I set up a lava lamp beside my tank so she could watch the colors and shapes morph of the lava" Do you plan to feed live always or are you gonna get her on frozen?

A lava lamp? was she watching it?
The mussel I feed her were frozen from fresh mussel as I don't have fresh one for now. I can feed frozen since she seems to like it anyway. what hapened to your mantis? Quote:

I use to buy mussels with the shell still attached on one side and put them upside down so she could work out her smashers a little and also use the shells for her burrow. I believe she might have had a very small case of shell rot, but also I had her in a Red sea max and the skimmer wasnt keeping up with the nitrates, so ultimately I believe it was the affect of nitrates that made her pass away.  I use to get fiddler crabs from pisces and do live feedings, or I would spend about 5mins on each tank in LFS's looking at them seeing if there were any hitchhiker crabs. A lot of the time I actually found crabs, especially big black ones and the LFS would either just give them to me if I knew the guy, or sell them for like 5$. Also I'd put chromis in my tank, theyd usually survive but sometimes when she was really hungry it was a good hunt and made her more active
