extreme_tooth_decay January 28, 2009 Share January 28, 2009 (edited) No editing this time. With my computer sound and youtube sound all the way up, that's exactly what it sounded like. It was super loud. I think if he was twice the size he could break it. Especially if it was thinner. I antagonized him with the feeding prong until he struck. This is filmed from the victim's perspective. Edited January 28, 2009 by extreme_tooth_decay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen January 28, 2009 Share January 28, 2009 That thing's going to break the glass and eat you and the camera one day. lol Cool video. I used to keep smaller mantis shrimp a couple of years ago.

zygote2k January 28, 2009 Share January 28, 2009 sounds loud, but it won't break a tank. I used to have a 6" peacock and it would strike the glass all the time with similar provocation. I've even had it strike the back of my thumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

extreme_tooth_decay January 28, 2009 Author Share January 28, 2009 So where get this boy get this toy Is a 16 Gallon too small for it ? I got mine at Roozen's. I was there this weekend, and they have a peacock that is a little smaller than mine there now. A 16 would be plenty big. People often talk about keeping them in 10/12/14. I have some discussion about that in my dedicated tank thread LINK tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
