Mantis Shrimp Addict
Wanted to know if any of you guys would know of places online sites. That i can obtain a good source of diet for my mantis? I'm sure many of you have more then one Mantis Shrimps and or may have good alliterative on diets.

I was pondered on several options. i prefer live foods but i don't know weather they will accept dead bits as well as the moving kind. If so any suggestion on that? Was thinking of getting a saltwater base fish a the market cut it up and freeze it. Or breeding Mollies, they are brackish water community fish that can be adapted to saltwater conditions. Or find a fishing bait supplier and obtain bullhead minnows and marine shrimp but that a bit costly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you :) Yes, i heard of this site but not sure if the included shipping would be good enough to reach me in VA and have the critters still be alive. The upgrade shipping is just too much but decent, Any other sites? or suggestions?
 
Hey there. Check eBay.com for "reef snails" and you should find alot for cheap. Nassarius snails are especially cheap, and you can buy them in lots of 50 or 100. :)

Also, "reef hermits" comes up with some cheap auctions as well.

Good luck!
