Well, apparently Red Coral is closed on Mondays. As for Pisces, the one they had was $119.00....yet the octopus is only $99. Go figure.

you dont see mostly green peacocks very often and the one at pisces is green. I recently losy my peacock and have been eyeing that one up. They also have 3 smaller mantises, a g.smithii, a p.cita (spearer) and an almost all white one

Say what!?...... Over a hundred bucks for a mantis shrimp!.... We could (and don't quote me on this) ship you ours and still be way cheaper than that..... Sorry the shop was closed..... We changed our hours a few weeks ago.... It was posted, but I guess you missed it....

if you think 100 is bad for one i wont even tell you what i paid for my show size l maculata. Just like anything in this trade theres a higher demand for harder to find specimens. Being a mantis lover id easily pay 119 for a green one and if i ever found an aussie red one id be all over it

i paid $100 for my peacock and it was well worth it, he follows me around his tank and is easily one of the most interactive "fish" ive seen, $100 isnt bad considering people pay over that for a coral,
