Wow...he's scary

On New Years Eve, I went down to this new LFS I just discovered, and saw a huge Mantis in a tank with a Leather Coral. Man, that thing was scary. I can't believe the fear I had for this thing. He came running and stared at me for a while and my heart almost stopped! That was the first time I saw a Mantis (and that big) few inches from me.

I don't know if that's because I've read so much horror story on them or what but my heart was beating strong. I can only imagine what I will do if I happen to get a Mantis with my rock (especially like the one I've seen). Only scary creature I've seen so far is this weired looking crab

According to LFS guy, he came out of one of their LR and almost got his finger. What I understood, nobody really goes close to that tank. I noticed some broken conch shell (you can't imagine the power)
