Ok for a Peacock Mantis tank what should I do. I have a 12x12x12 cube on my bar already setup and going. This is one of Rich's tanks and pretty thick glass, not like a $10 wal-mart 10 gallon. On the other end my sump on my 26 gallon is a 12 gallon Eclipse which is plastic. I could pull that this weekend and use it. I know you here tales of the glass breaking but for a 2" Mantis ?

We used a 2.5 gallon elcheapo wal-mart type tank. Ours hit the sides all the time and was never a problem., but we had a little Wennerae. I think Peacocks get 5-6" so uhm, it would have been toast.

I want one of those. Rich had one on his counter last weekend and those things are so cool.

After one night of watching and feeding he has topped my aquarium "cool" list.

You haven't seen my mandarin baby! He's totally psychadelic.
