you really think 1 i care... food is food, nature is nature, and i have kept this mantis in my display tank before i shut it down for almost the entire time i had it and never once did a fish die.

if i was really worried about it dying it wouldnt be in there, and if it does die it aint hurting anyone. it was gonna die either way. just like me and you are too.

the video wasnt posted for lawls, it has never mad an attempt at the fish once, in the video it was going after the krill cuz it knows it eat when it sees the tweezers

honestly, if you think this is bad dont make me post videos on youtube of people feeding mice to pirhanas etc.. and i dont think thats bad... its the sadistic ways of nature, animals dont hug.

funny thing to if this was a puffer eating a mantis shrimp people would laugh.

i dont know why you guys are crying, there is no harm happening to anything in the video.

No i havnt, but just for the sake that i refuse to ever catch fish once they're in a tank filled with minimal clearance of sps branchs.

if the mantis wanted to kill it, it wouldnt take food from me and it would still be looking at it.

though maybe i can be bribed into wasting time.

I hope your new clown thrives in your tank.
Who knows, maybe it'll eat your mantis
Post us some pics in the next weeks of your tank.

BTW, I meant to mention that your mantis is a color I've never seen b4.
Just noting that it's kinda grey/pale?
I haven't kept 'em so can't say much about it. Not being critical, just saying it may need other foods?
