I just got this guy at my old work Big Als... Told them I wouldn't pay more then 5 bucks for it. It's only about an inch long so tiny. Really cool, I'm pretty sure it's a Gonodactulus Smithii aka Purple spotted mantis. He's hard to see, still abit shy, although he is eating krill off of a stick:)

i hate you, ive wanted a smithii but mantises are impossible come by where im from (New Brunswick Canada)
 
The only time i see Mantis's is in Live Rock vats,nobody sells them in the UK and most LFS's kill them because they are so common.
 
Awesome mantis.
