WHO WANTS TO KNOW ABOUT MANTIS SHRIMP?

[The Zigman]

Quite possibly one of the meanest animals on the planet, check out some of the clips of them on you tube. Maybe someday, I'll go salty... but for now, its gonna be me and the discus...

Why do you say that?

Nice read Bob!

So, where do Pistol shrimp fit in with respect to speed? I guess they rely on the cavitation phenomenon pretty exclusively to do what they do...

Why do you say that?

[Squawkbert]

Me too - If I ever setup a SW at work, it'll probably be a 5g pistol/goby w/ DSB & one large chunk of LR, a nice light & some caulerpa.

Mantis' stalking/attacking pattern reminds me of that of a dog. Any study or example of mantis' intelligence?
