Mantis

[budman0418]

I saw a Peacock Mantis at LFS and want it so bad. BUT The question is Do you think it will be allright in my sump? Its an Aqua Flow #4 and the only thing in the main part is a protein skimmer then pump for the skimmer in not open. If i put some rubble in there and a tube do you think it will be OK? Want to get some input before i buy it.

Unless it happens to have brood then???

I has no where to go really, one side in bio balls and the ohter is the pump but its blocked by a wall and a foam filter pad. it will be in a 14 inch by 19 inch space with about 8 inchs on water above it. i figure a snail or crab every 3 or 4 days will be plenty of food for it, maybe a damel. peacock is a clubber so i figure snail,crab or shrimp over fish.
