Ok, I am a little confused. I called FFExpress on there 2 peacock mantis shrimp and they were sold. Oh well.
But I asked how they shipped them for future reference and they said they just put them in a bag as they would ship a fish.
This worried me because if that little bugger got scared or for some reason speared and hit the wall of the bag, that would be it. No more water in bag = dead peacock.
Is this a normal practice when shipping mantis shrimp? If I were to ship one I put put him in a little $1.50 hamster ball and put that into the bag of water.
Has anyone every gotten a mantis shrimp in from a MO company in just a bag?
