Description

The Neogonodactulus wennerae is type of mantis shrimp that very hardy and active. The ones that we get are usually in between 1 inch to 2 3/4 inches in length. Contact us if you want to know what sizes we have available because a 1 inch mantis will grow up but may not be suitable for your tank. They can be a variety of colors, from a light cream, to a brighter green with a checkered sort of pattern. We find them in shallow grass flats and shallow rubble area. They are smasher mantis shrimp.
Mantis shrimp are very aggressive and are usually reserved for a species only tank. I would not recommend mixing them with any other fish, shrimp, crab, or thin-shelled snail. I would also not recommend handling them. For more information on mantis shrimp, go to Dr. Roy Caldwell’s excellent site dedicated exclusively to mantis shrimp.
