Mantis shrimp wanted

[Mr Neutron]

Anyone have a mantis shrimp they don't want? Prefer one from gulf rock (tampa bay saltwater etc). I'm setting up a small mantis tank and looking for a nice specimen to enjoy.

PM or email if you have what I'm looking for. :cool:

I believe I have about 3 mantis shrimp in my tank I would be more than willing to give them to you, but I have no idea on how to get them out of my tank. One of them stays in my closed brain constant If you have any tips on how to catch them let me know. If you are going to the thing on Saturday in St. Pete and if I can catch them by then I will give them to you there.

Forgot to include that they are from Tampa Bay Saltwater.

Hi there

At this point I don't think I'll be going, but not sure. How big are the mantids? I haven't got the tank set up yet so I'm not quite ready to take them. I think if you took the coral out and squirted some fresh water where he stays he probably will come out.
