They are gorgeous and interesting creatures. I would keep one, but I don't want to meet the demands of a predator (any predators )

Premier has been getting in some great looking mantis shrimp since before I left. Definitely check them out.

You may also check out bluezooaquatics.com, they almost always have them in stock along with other species, if you don't mind paying for shipping.

Hey Max, does it have to be a Peacock Mantis Shrimp, or can it be something else? If so, would you prefer a Clubber or a Spearer?

Your thread inspired me to look up the Peacock Mantis shrimp. This USA article has some cool information and a link to a video. I never knew they struck so fast! How are you going to house the shrimp?
