He's beautiful! We tore down our 150G high-tech reef tank almost two years ago, after over 11 years in the saltwate aspect of the hobby. But I still get the urge to set something up for a mantis shrimp. I really like these guys.

Oh yes I can definitely understand that ... they are extraordinary organisms and so interesting to watch ...  If you do I would recommend a 20 G minimum.
