Are you just trying to keep them both exercising?
All I see is a stressed-out clown  and the potential for ich or something worse.Not my first choice for tank-mates in a nano. Good luck with your 'experiment' ( poor clown )

I think you might have more laughs if you post it on face book or twitter.
Everyone on this forum knows that mantis will kill and eat the clown. If you really would want to help this fish you wouldn’t keep these two together. This is irresponsible, higher species with evolved consciences do not behave like that. Would you keep a cat and a mouse in one enclosure? Or dog and a cat?

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 Last edited by Corbin; 04-08-2012 at 06:11 AM.

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. Last edited by Corbin; 04-08-2012 at 06:14 AM.

Really? doesn't that depend if it is a smasher or a spearer? Mine has been living with fish for more than 6 months and never killed anything. It is even with 2 blue legged hermit crab and a cleaner shrimp and did not kill them.
I first had it with a dottyback and once I sold the dottyback the mantis took its cave and now it's been living with 2 clownfish and 1 leopard wrasse for 2 months. It's only 15 gallons and the leopard wrasse is going in my 75 tank soon. The mantis I have is about 3" and it's a smasher. It bearely come out of its cave. When I think that the leopard wrasse burry itself in the sand each night, it is amazing that the mantis has not bother it in 2 months, but it does not. I feed the mantis well. I would not put fish with larger mantis, but I guess it also depend on the specie. BTW, silly comment as I ALWAYS had cats and dogs living together in perfect harmony, still do. Quote:
