I love these guys, but cant seem to find them anywere? I dont think i've ever seen one in person. Let me know if you have one and how much you want for it, Id like to set up a mantis tank. I'd prefer a peacock, and a male. Thanks.

The biggest one was red...kinda like cooked lobster red!! :) The other one was a little lighter in colour. They were in the back where the CUC's are and are being kept in "hamster" balls. Now that I think about it, there may have been 3. What the heck you gonna do with them? They really were yucky! :)
