Shrimp is food, along with fish and birds. I don't give a **** if that's the 6 million dollar shrimp or RoboShrimp, I am eating that summama***** with some marinara sauce and pasta.

Damn straight. I'd pretty much eat any living thing on this planet if I was hungry enough. My ass would eat frickin blue whale steaks if I could get my hands on them.

UPDATE!!!

oh ****! check this out:
so i'm burnin cd's and hear the 'click click CLICK' for my first time. i go over there and he's fumbling with a little piece of rock.......odd because we only gave him 3 big pieces of rock.
turns out the lil rugrat has been BREAKING pieces off the big rocks. he's found a lil spot in the back that he likes to burrow in and i was told that they tend to "build" their homes right when they get into a new tank. sure enough! he's already stacked a few lil pieces into a cave-like fashion in the area that he got comfy in last night.




i love this dude.

He's one ugly mother ****er. I'd still throw him in the frying pan, though.

Me vs the Mantis Shrimp.

I guarantee I will win. I'll ground him to dust like that dude did to that Scorpion that killed his baby in "The Pearl".

you'll win, minus a few fingers.

about an hour before i bought him, the owner of the fish store lowered a bic ball point pen casing into the tank.
mr. mantis managed to split it in 6 pieces on one strike in less than 5 seconds from it touching water.

That shrimp is badass. You should stick things in there to see what he can break.

Purity

he can break a lotta ****. bob, he's about 6 inches long and can get up to a foot. once he's that long then his strike actually becomes as powerful as a bullet. and you are the only one that i honestly think could kick his ass unscathed.
