Hello from the mountains of North Carolina. I am preparing an essay on the Peacock Mantis shrimp. I am looking for any resources that might improve my paper and add to the bibliography. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

Dr. Roy Caldwell who's username here is Gonodactylus on here (although he hasn't logged on in several years) is one of, if not the, foremost experts on Mantis Shrimp. Here's a link to some of his work.

Odd - been contemplating setting up a tank for one. Amazing creatures.

The good doctor has dedicated alot of time to his passion. I am searching for life cycle articles and material on monogamy after death of one mate and the occurance of stolen mates and grotto. Does it reach terminal size and diet stabilization or remain a variety throughout. Does it develop preferences to what's dominant its territory? A food study and defense of its preferred source of that food? Maybe propagation of a preferred species? Any advice or directions before I turn in my idea?
