Over hyped, match him up with someone his own size and potential than yhe puny emerald crab
Are you going to try and breed Bruce?? or is that beyond your comfort level? (Either way Id think they are similar to tarantulas in that you want to keep them separate most of the time) and then move the female in before she molts, as only after molting can they breed) On an off note you should set up a separate tank and keep a zebra mantis, so you can compare the two.
"Square up devil"
Where did you get that color pvc?
Just got it from a plumbing supply merchant
Awesome
4:46 AYO💀
Hi! Love your calming voice explaining this. Would it be possible to house a Mantis in a 35 gallon 50x50x50 cube?
Amazing tank! Really enjoyed this video.
Forgot to mention, our shrimp, John Sea-Na, raps on the glass when he’s hungry, until he’s fed. I’ve apparently been trained by my mantis shrimp…
Just got our Peacock Mantis…and within 2 weeks, hand feeding it krill…
Please keep these videos coming, you dont know what you're doing for the future of Stomatopods
🤣 Lee seeting down the dick on some in video starting
Good to see Big Bruce enjoying the new estate! Would love to see more about the set-up.
Bruce Lee vs kids 😂
Awesome work Sir! ❤💯🔥
Dis dicise worked
How much did you pay for Bruce?
If I remember correctly he was £75
Do you remove his molts?
No I don't tend to see much of it as Bruce eats most of it to recover nutrients. He does sometimes leave a couple of small bits that I will remove
I think you should fight bruce against a tiny octipus
How to breed them
I'm not aware of anyone who is captive breeding mantis cshrimp at the moment, hopefully in the future though.
These videos are so helpful! I've been thinking about buying a zebra mantis shrimp and there are almost no resources for it. :/
One of my dreams is to own a zebra but be aware they require a very different setup to Bruce
Wowza what a mantis shrimp
Super cool video, I’m going to set up my first mantis shrimp in a 75 gallon tank and I plan on making it a community tank. I think a more technical video about all the equipment you have would be really cool and useful, also how many liters/gallons is the new tank?
Those were the quickest kills ever😂
Oh Bruce
Go br
This is kind of boring he never comes out much I know and Bruce fights and behind a screen
What happened to the decorator Crab
He got transferred into my main reef tank. I can't say I've seen him in a while but he's very good at hiding and mainly nocturnal.
Do you use tap water with water conditioner then add salt? Or something special?
I use water put through a reverse osmosis machine to make sure it is totally clean then mix using red sea coral pro salt
DUDE HERMITS ARE FUCKING SCAVENGERS
Can you put that nutrition drops that you soak on the frozen fish. I’d like to buy some thanks
The stuff I was using is JBL Atvitol
thank you for your help
Glad it helped
Thank you so much for providing such helpful tips! It inspired me to have my own tank, it's there a significant difference between peacock mantis shrimp and normal ones in their behavior?( Since there's significant price difference I'm thinking to buy only a normal one with less exciting colors)
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! There are certainly differences in the care requirements for different species. The main difference is if it is a spearer or a smasher as these have very different needs. Within the smashers though there are also considerable differences in size and temperament although I am no expert in these as I have only ever kept peacocks.
That took longer than I thought it would. Hey Bruce What are your punching arms made of ? I noticed some missed shots that hit some rocks and/or coral that didn't seem to cause any damage.
I love how bruce snatched the small hermit crab and goes back into his lair
Always a delight to see what Bruce is up to!
You talk about bruce 1, bruce 2.... How much can live this species of mantis shrimp in captivity?
Where did you buy him from? Im located in California and have not been able to find anyone or anywhere that sells them.
I'm based in the UK and got him from a local fish store so I'm not going to be too much help I'm afraid. What I would say is any reputable store should be able to source one however it is worth trying to build a relationship with them first as they are often reluctant to place a special order for someone just walking in off the street.
I am glad Bruce didn’t kill the decorative crab. I am glad shrimp & crab they can live together; & I like the decorative crab he fit in with the other 😊
It was only a matter of time...
Owww get a snake camera! I want to see what he built inside the tunnels!
Swim in peace Psycho 🥲 I'd like to see a technical video. Also, there's a lot of contradicting info out there for mantis shrimps. If you could give your tips and tricks based off personal experience that'd be cool, even if it's against the grain. I know you have similar videos so just if there's anything new you've picked up on over the years.
I'll see what I can think of but if you have anything you particularly want to know let me know and I'll see if I can make a vid on it.
Great video once again. What camera do you use?
Thanks a lot ☺️ it's a panasonic lumix gh5.
so gay, let's your faggy bruce against a scorpion
It's crazy how the algorithm is biased. You have a superior mantis shrimp channel in every aspect compared to any other creator. I guess its true...they really are actively working to dumb down society.
Happy Bruce is still doing well. Sadly my peacock just passed after what I thought was a successful molt, I’m wondering if it was the water parameters. Do you typically monitor nitrates in Bruce’s tank?
I'm sorry for your loss, the fact you rarely get a reason makes it even harder in my opinion. I don't test for nitrates as often as I should but tend to look for algae/coral issues to give an indication they are rising. As a rule I generally look to keep nitrates below 10 and my ideal number is about 2.
Great to see another update on Bruce. New tank looks good. Would be interested to hear the equipment you are running
Nice update, good to see him happy in his new home. I was wondering, do you dose anything for the corals in his tank?
Generally no I don't dose anything in the tank. Almost all the corals are softies so there is not much need. I have dosed low levels of iodine in the past when an icp test showed levels were low.
@@KungFuShrimp good to know cheers
I fear for any fish that are in the tank with Bruce.
Tank looks gorgeous. Nice barrel roll Bruce!!😎
