Anyone knows where I can get peacock mantis shrimps? I've tried quite a few farms around, but no luck so far.

Thanks =)

I know this is an old question or you probably bought it already. Are you putting them into your tank as pets or as feeders?

I've seen Sheng Siong selling it a few time before. The Marsiling outlet.

Just curious, generally speaking, do Mantis shrimps require tank glass of certain thickness?

Or are you buying it as food? Joking joking! Anyway just wondering, the sheng shiong selling peacock mantis or the regular mantis? Cause I'm interested if they are one and the same.

Haha OT, but such an old thread... Do they taste the same or is peacock inedible?

think should be edible... since its another type of mantis shrimp... but would you eat it if it cost around 10x the normal price of a mantis? (i don't know price LOL~ just giving an example )
