I went to the LFS today. The owner is my dad's friend. While i was looking at his fish tanks, i saw a green mantis, which was a hihitcher on his LR order. He gave the shrimp to me for free! 8O So... I need help... I don't know 1 bit about mantis care other than it's SW and it's prety hardy XD
I put him in my 10G "Prison Tank", where i keep badly behaved hermits . I moved all the hermits to a small container, don't worry hehe. Anyway, right now,the tank has:
1 Maxijet 600 - 160GPH flow
150W Heater
2.5 inches of sand
A few pieces/rubbles of LR that i took from my main tank
I tested the water and the parameters were off the chart.... I don't know how the hermits were living in there
PH - 8
NH3 - 1.0
NO2 - 1.3
NO3 - 100+
SG - 1.024
The shrimp doesn't show any sign of distress, which is kind of odd... He's exploring the tank and already starting on his burrow.
So! Can anyone give me some information about how to take care of this little devil?
Thanks In Advance
