  1. So i bought a mantis shrimp 3 days ago, the common name is false mantis shrimp (Pseudosquilla ciliata). Its was not eating anything hence i plan to bring it some feeder fish today. But i saw a lump of yellow eggs between its limbs. So is that the problem that cause the mantis shrimp to not eat. And will the mantis shrimp be eating while he cares for his eggs? Oh and can someone tell me how to raise the baby mantis if they are born?(but they are probably not fertilised) Oh and i cant post pictures. See my post about how my fish dies after a few days i took its photo. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

  6. Okay today i am feeding my (rhinopias?) And i ran out of live food, so i tried to lure my scopion to eat a frozen none smelling shrimp, so first i tried hanging infront of him then dropping it to get its attention, then i drop it again and again them i used a chopstick and make the shrimp move alittle then bingo it ate it. This might work for other fish so i just post it thanks! Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  7. And the octopus is like 5 cm unstrected and it mainly hide in the rock work so i have to get it out of there just to feed it, i took the food itself so it likes it but not actively looking for it. Oh and it really can hide so well like a 2 cm crack in the rock? No problem, because its eyes is 0.7mm so it can basically go into anything and anything. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

  12. Yeah so i sorta want another pico tank as my last one was converted into a large tank Buttttt my only pico tank is now storing a juvinile day octopus or octopus Cyanea It is eating freshwater shrimp, alive or recently terminated. So far the tank have a few rock for the octopus to hide in. And yeah thats pretty much it. And my father asked my if i can "bueutify" the tank, so i wonder what i can put into that already small tank. And the tank size is (PLEASE DONT HATE ME ITS A REALLY SMALL OCTO PLEASE DONT HATE ME) 1 gallon.... with no light. The filtration is a conventional pump the water into a sponge and let it flow out. And yeah. So far the octopus is okay, and the waste is okay so i have a few idea about what to put in it. 1. Tube worm 2. Sponges 3.macroalgae 4.nassarius snails or turbo 5. Your suggestion. So how? Any advice is welcome even crictisicim is welcomed. Ps my spelling is not okay so apologies if my spelling is somewhat wrong. Ps i cant put any picture as i have this cruse.... check out my post death photo Ps the salinity of the tank is 1.026-1.028 Ps i have no test kit as im broke from buying the scorpion fish rhinopia i think...... Ps im average in saltwater fishes and inverts, not in corals tou. Still noob. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  13. Hmm i added it to a freshwater lobster tank before and also saltwater, for freshwater long term its okay but saltwate im not sure. U have to make it stay in the spot with a few stone if not it wil float up. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app

  19. Its probably trying to expel waste or so. Is it new added? As new anemone tend to do that from time to time so yeah. As long you dont see through the mouth it should be okay. My seabae anemone also hav this problem when i got him but now his happily living. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  20. Its my first time caring for a mantis shrimp sooo is there any care im suppose to have, i know that it is very big so i provided a huge tank. And i have several hiding spots. I feed my other mantis crab limbs or mysis, they like both of it. So am i doing something wrong with the peacock mantis? I really want to have another one but dont want tragedy to happen, Again. Thx Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
  21. Yes i do anddd its dead[emoji22] probably i did not acclimize it properly, my first mantis died that way too, my other mantis shrimp is acclimize properly so they are still alive, sigh. Regrets on putting the peacock in early. Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app
