You really need more substrate in the bottom of that tank. Like, several inches of it, or the mantis shrimp wont have anywhere to go, hide or moult. It'll eventually die from stress.
Its a fish get over it. Guess how we became the dominant species. We killed everything inferior to us. Get over yourselves. You're weak and should be removed from the gene pool.
@1969LEO1969 Can you kill a bear with your hands? You, individually, are weak and inferior to other animals.. that is why you shouldn't insult other individuals in the way you did. We humans, collectively are dominant.
everyone who says it is okay because it happens in nature- in nature- the prey doesn't get thrown or fed or trapped in a tank or room with it's predator-in nature the prey has the chance to live- either by it's own virtues, or even by luck.
Throwing one live animal into a confined enclosure to be slain and devoured by another has very little to do with nature and much more to do with animal cruelty and sadism.Decent people don't engage in shit like this.
@mikethebike7 Exactly my friend.. very nice point !! Unfortunately most of the people here are too idiots to understand your point... Most of them say the unoriginal "this is nature".. Oh, and most of them are little weak shits that like playing tough and being cruel... its the fashion, being cruel nowadays think that makes them cool...
I don't know whether to 5 star this because it's awesome, or 1 star it because you're a prudish idiot. This shit happens to MILLIONS of organisms every single day on earth. Get over it.
For you people who downvoted the vid: you do realize that happens ALL the time in real nature right? There is no reason to get upset about it. It's like a cat killing a mouse, sure I'd be upset if it was MY mouse but I'd be wiser than to leave a mouse besides a cat. My Gramp's lil' beagle kills about 50 mouses at the farm. Not kidding.
two words, WHO CARES, clown fish are boring as hell anyways, i'd love to have that zebra...and if i ever got a clown, i'd do the FULL NEMO and cut off his right fin LOL!
Its not really cruelty, but it is a waste of a perfectly good clown... Thats why they say Mantis should be kept in a species only tank, because they are like the overly aggressive assholes you encounter in day to day life.
I am positive this guy is an idiot. "look at me, I'm feeding a clown fish to a mantis shrimp." Moron! Lets lock you in a room with me for 10 minutes and you can get a taste of what its like to be defenseless.
Did you read the description? It was at the local fish store and he stopped going there because of it. Try reading descriptions before judging people.
I remember back in my freshwater days having algae eaters that got so big and they started to kill the goldfish by sicking on their sides until their little intestines and shit were coming out of the sides.
Sometimes fish just don't get along. Saltwater obviously has a lot more incompatible fish. People should research before mixing expensive fish together and expecting a refund when shit like this happens.
Mantis Shrimp are effing crazy. Though I bet that tomater was picking on the shrimp.
@BodyHeadBanger are you for real mate do you know anything about marine fish? a clown picking on a mantis shrimp? i suggest you stop drinking when you post on here or at least do your research. since when have clown fish became predators or bully's of shell fish? it's like saying hey look at that zebra sticking it's head in that lions mouth. poor lion getting bullied will it get tooth ache?
@BodyHeadBanger you're obviously not a very thoughtful fishkeeper if you let your algae eaters starve. how your ill informed comment took one of the top positions is baffling. "sometimes fish just don't get along". jeez. as a fishkeeper you should know what fish get along and for what reason. do some research.
Actually if you knew anything about the reef industry you would know alot of people are trying to stay away from wild animals. I am not into the fish, mostly captive cultured coral and the point of this video was to show how upset i was with seeing this.
Nope this is not my tank. I am a lover of tomato clowns and this was a sight i hated to see. I took this video for awareness of a certain store with what they did because they disliked these clowns. Since than they lost my respect and myself as a customer.
Sorry I automatically assumed that you had done that. Shame to the fishshop then !!! You should name the shop so that people can form there own opinions.
A better video would be Mantis Shrimp vs Chef in Temple street spicy crab restaurant Hong Kong... chef wins every time

Some people feed clowns to their mantis. It seems rather arbitrary to take issue with this when they're already fed shrimp or crabs in captivity.
