Oh and a quick story of one of my death experiences . I had a small 2 to 3 inch N.wennerae that was pretty use to feedings from tongs and comfy with me around the tank . Also the ocassional crab and snail . Well one day I go to drop a crab in and I could tell it was keyed up . I drop in the crab and you know how thay kinda float to the bottom . Well when the crab is like 4 or 5 inches from the substrate the mantis darts out and hits it one shot in the back that literally split its back wide open from front to back . I was like holy **** I wish I had that on camera . Needless to say that thing didint move much after that shot . I gotta do a search and find you that mantis versus octopus video . But I cant remember where I saw it .
