I have a 6g fluval edge with just a yellow mantis in it and I love him but his tank seems so barren... I was thinking of fragging a couple soft corals and placing them in there. I have Xenia and Kenya tree corals and I was thinking maybe some mushrooms. I'm also not sure how to light it, I was thinking removing the plastic "lid" and hanging a light over it, but what size/type should I go with? I have heard mantis shrimp don't like intense lighting so I was thinking a PC or maybe a 2 bulb t5. I haven't seen a Mantis Shrimp reef before, maybe there's a reason for that and I shouldn't try this. Any input is welcome. If this is a stupid idea please feel free to tell me so. Oh and here is a video of him in his tank http://youtu.be/0SbPWTsw75s
