just wanted to say that the info in this thread was really useful in helping you catch a mantis!
I figured the popping I was hearing was from a pistol shrimp and I got lucky and I didn't have to worry about catching a mantis! I was wrong! I saw one this morning after 5 weeks of having my live rock. I tried the bottle technique but I was too impatient with that after a few hours. my husband and I found the rock he was staring at us from, scooped it out of the tank and shook it. fail. then we prodded the holes gently. fail. finally shook the rock like mad and it fell into a waiting bucket w tank water.
now to figure out what to do with it...
