we're not crazy!

well, thats actually debateable, but we arent imagining that clicking noise we have heard for a coupld of years now. the great news about it is - it is a pistol shrimp, not a mantis :) we finally saw it tonight, about 1/2 " long with one big white and blue claw. looks like the pic for a japanese pistol shrimp when we did a google search. now, the trick will be getting a picture of the little guy!

Thats cool. Funny how you found it in 2x the volume of water :)

I do have a pistol, but found a mantis ... :o

actually, got a better look at him, and his claw isnt white and blue, and he is about an inch long. time to start the id search. anyone know off hand the type of gobi that will pair with them?

pete good luck with that mantis, ive heard horror stories!
