Hi guys,
I have a beauty of a peacock mantis named Harley Quinn, living in a 20 long. A 45g will be the permanent home, but it needs to be set up and start cycling. I adore my sweet smasher and I'm learning that feeding everyday isn't a great idea. Every other day HQ kicks out the dinner from the night before. Is this usual?
What on earth do peacock mantis shrimp keepers do to keep the dang algae and detritus cleaned up? HQ smacked down a huge brittle star for having the gall to grab some grub that I put in for the star! Dead in less than 24 hours, with that piece of krill underneath it. I felt so bad. Someone had told me, oh no worries, as long as a peacock mantis is well fed they'll not bother a brittle star. Seriously? HQ said, "NOT IN MY HOUSE! and that was the end of that.
