I've successfully covered my tank with plastic when the floors in my classroom were being stripped and waxed. I used plastic wrap and secured it with elastic or tape.

Your best bet is to get your peacock to come up out...

Check out stomatopod sex pics link at the top of the forum. That might help. Look at his underside, under the abdomen. If you see a pair of small "sticks" that stick inward, it is male. If you...

I agree with Dan. He's probably not hungry enough to care about the frozen foods. If you let him go for a few days without, I bet he'll take frozen.

I love the partner in crime. The mantis shrimp takes care of the torso. The clown attacks from the rear. Quite funny!

I would NOT recommend a peacock for your tank, especially not a specimen that size. That is a disaster waiting to happen, IMO. If you really want the G. smithii, that would be much better than a...

I keep a black molly in with my 6.5" peacock. It eats scraps from the front of her den and she never bothers it. My G. ternatensis, on the other hand, would take out a damsel if it came too close. ...
