Mantis Shrimp Behaviour

[dunl]

Just read this thread Marco....


They can be picky, too. Case in point? My chiragra will charge across the tank from the bottom to the TOP corner on the other side to get krill, swimming as fast as his little flippers will propel him. If I move it around he just does somersaults and keeps going after it.

Yet, there is a molly that I acclimatized to saltwater in April that is still alive in his tank....fresh scallop got chucked back at me...twice.....periwinkles were tossed out of his cave like little basketballs.....go figure.
