    Was it this forum where someone recently posted short vids of their Mantis grabbing/eating some emerald crabs?

    He found the fresh warter findler craps much cheaper for him as well!

    No they most definitely have 16 color receptors. It's the punching through aquarium glass that's BS. They have broken the bottoms of tanks, in an attempt to dig down.
