I love the bright colors of these shrimp and am thinking about keeping one. But in the meantime, i would like to see yours. So please post pics of your mantis shrimp. Thanks.
Took these a few minutes ago...there are many more in my gallery (I have 6 mantis Shrimp).
Baba Yaga, my female Gonodactylus Ternatensis, annoyed that I gave the last fiddler crab in the kritter keeper to Dagon, my O. Scyllarus (Peacock). She whipps around all excited when she sees me lift the crab-tank's lid. Too bad for her little bratty self (She has had live crab 3 of the last 4 days...she is a bit spoiled).
Glaurung, my Gonodactylys Platysoma. He is really mellow, and (unlike what everyone else says about the species), he actually is out-and-about quite a lot.
rwhhunt - that is one sweet mantis! Not that I'm exposed to MS all the time, but that is the first one I've seen with pinks and pastel oranges. Very nice specimen. Are those juvenille colours that will eventually fade with age? Every time I see MS pics, it makes me want to put one in my 20G nano sps tank.
