Hi,

a mantis shrimp would eat other shrimp, also snails, hermits, etc..

depends on what size rocks you have/how much you may have gotten one... i got 30 lbs, didnt have any.

are you sure they're being eaten?

regards,
jib

I got 25 lbs, and it had 1 mantis. Fortunately for me, it was already dead at the bottom of the shipping box! Two dead hairy crabs as well.

Shrimp tend to molt after shipping......could be just empty shells....
