Food
Like most mantis shrimp, they are opportunistic feeders and will take small fish and malacostracans.There are two types of mantis shrimp, one that uses a spear-like appendage and one that smashes prey. The zebra mantis shrimp is an example of a spearer, ambushing passing prey with a slashing motion. Breeding pairs typically share a burrow, with the male using his larger raptorial appendages to do the majority of the hunting.References:
