Recommended Posts

Was always wondering how my dwarf hermit crabs & gobies when to. Last week saw a head sticking out of the LR & last nite saw it again at another place. On closer inspection, it is most likely to be a MANTIS SHRIMP although couldn't see its full body........ :o Help, I got a killer in my tank.

How to get it out? use a trap with dead prawn to get out of its hiding place as I dun know which LR is exactly its hiding place. Try looking at the 1st hole that I spotted it, but can't see it leh.

you can't get a mantis with dead prawn.. it catches its prey alive..

Why do we use "My 2 cents worth" when 1 cents are not legal tender in Singapore anymore? Shouldn't it be 5 cents worth?

Hi,

Mix a pail of salt water to a salinty of around 1.030 to 1.040, submerge the piece of rock that u suspect the pest is housing, turn the rock gradually over and over again.

U will notice that it comes out floating on the surface of the water

I try and it is proven for me.

:lol:
