Lak, I dont know if you were still looking for a flame hawk but John has one left. I bought one today and he looks sweet.

lanxang · #60 11/06/2005, 06:03 PM

yeah i bought one too. I forgot to call you up, remembered to right when I enter sac. duh...

Bdimas · #61 11/06/2005, 07:08 PM

When did you get it?

lanxang · #62 11/06/2005, 07:33 PM

I bought it yesterday.

Bdimas · #63 11/06/2005, 07:34 PM

Cool.

mothra · #64 11/07/2005, 12:04 AM

Yep those are peacock mantis (O. scyllarus). In case anyone is thinking about getting one you should know they are not good candidates for aquaria as they are succeptable to shell disease, and do not tolerate bright lights well. If you really 'need' one, make sure to give it at least a 20g tank, with some substrate and pvc burrows.

I was at twins and Jhon said randy no longer works at carters pet store hes going to come work at twins.

Bdimas · #66 11/07/2005, 09:10 PM

Wow. Thats a trip.

GorillaReefer · #67 11/07/2005, 09:35 PM

I seen Randy in Lodi, Sunday, and he said he's gonna go work for Robinson's. You can never believe what John says. I won't believe it till I see it.

Tenderoni Drop · #68 11/07/2005, 09:42 PM

J whats up true thought i throw that in thier sound int.

lanxang · #69 11/07/2005, 10:01 PM

Why is randy leaving carter's?

lanxang · #70 11/07/2005, 11:14 PM

Brian,

Here is the flame posing with the acan.

Bdimas · #71 11/07/2005, 11:45 PM

He looks cool. I just found mine dead. He ate a few minutes after I acclimated him, but was breathing pretty hard after. Sucks.

lanxang · #72 11/07/2005, 11:59 PM

man that sucks. I pretty much just temp acclimate him and then dump him in, minus the water (John uses copper, my cousin found out the hard way). He been doing good so far. Are you going to get another?

Bdimas · #73 11/08/2005, 12:05 AM

Yeah it really sucks. I really liked him, so I will probably get another one. I dont know when or from where though.

Tenderoni Drop · #74 11/08/2005, 12:12 AM

Jhon said randy had sticky icky icky fingers. so hes thru according to jhon

mothra · #75 11/08/2005, 12:15 AM

Huh? Did he even work there? Sounds like John might be blowing smoke (pun intended), seriously though... that's strange.
