Two weeks?!


If she was molting you shouldn't have rearranged.

well i read that g.chiragra's can stay closed up from 2-3 weeks during molting process so i feel a lot better now.

well i was literally just talking about how i wish izzy would come out cause i was worried about her being closed up so long and all of a sudden her doors started to open and there she was! it was crazy! already took krill like it was the last piece in the world. She regenerated her antennal scale she lost and its so tiny lmao. Here are some pics she looks great and i notice a decent size difference (prob cause i havent seen her in so long).

Wow, your tank looks more reef than Mantis home. Think I've been keeping destructive cichlids for too long and now my decorating skills consist of gravel, rocks, and a heater LOL. Congratulations on regrowing her scale, love the colors of new molt.

LOL at destructive cichlids. Green Terrors and Peacock Bass come to mind...

Gozer, your mantis regrew the antennal scale then?
